SUMMARY:Fort Mifflin in South Philly
DESCRIPTION:\r\nWe in AMERICA remember Fort Mifflin when we think of e
 arly November.\r\n\r\nFort Mifflin was the largest naval bombardment u
 ntil Normandy in June 1944 \r\n\r\n240 soldiers at the fort delayed th
 e British takeover of Philadelphia, which allowed the citizens time to
  flee the city and take all the ingredients and recipes for Cheesestea
 ks and Cannollis, preventing these important assets from falling into 
 British hands. \r\n\r\nFort Mifflin was also a prison for Confederate 
 Soldiers during the American Civil War \r\n\r\nhttps://www.pabook.lib

 6\r\n Some years, the North American Venue was in NYC.\r\n\r\nAnd when
  it is at the Fringe Arts Theater near Columbus Ave and the Riverfront
  in South Philly . . . I always pushed for  \"Mummers and Hummers\" P
 arade down Columbus Avenue\"   .   .   .   Imagine strutting t
 o the sound of Saxophones and Banjos and Roaring Engines in the middle
  of the night.  Then culminating with the Battle of the Cheesesteaks 
 at 9th & Wharton & Passyunk.  That'll show those Brits that South Phi
 lly never forgits.\r\n\r\nWhat is so special about November 10 ?\r\nBe
 sides being close to Guy Fawkes Day of November 5th, 1605 . . .  Nov 
 10, 1777  at Ft Mifflin in the Delaware River near South Philadelphia
  was the largest bombardment of the Revolutionary War from British shi
 ps in the river )\r\nhttp://fortmifflin.us/about-the-fort\r\n \r\nso 
 this is when we invite everyone out on Saturday & Sunday Nov 12,13 for
  Siege Wkend at nearby Fort Mifflin.   $10 for the day\r\nhttp://www
