Come see the FAMOUS Mohnton Navy Yard and Lake Valmont. (VALley nestled between 2 MOuNTains) It was a seven acre square lake. During World WarII many a battleship was floated up the Wyomissing and repairs were made to the ships. Alas, Lake Valmont no loner exists. A heavy rain caused at least 6 dams upstream to swell beyond their capacities and rupture. The raging water was too much for Lake Valmont's dam and it too gave way! See what remains! Take a walk over to the mighty Wyomissing, close your eyes and image the battleships!!!! To log this find-----answer the following questions and send via separate email the answers.
