1776 Live(@250YearsAgoLive):Under cover of fog, Colonel John Glover and his Marblehead mariners evacuate General Washington's army of 9,000 men from Long Island to the relative safety of Manhattan. The fog is thought to have saved the army from total annihalation, as the British gunners could not see the Americans through it.
