On October 9, 1781, George Washington personally fired the first shot at Yorktown. In doing so, he symbolically began the last great battle of the American Revolutionary War. The largest British field army in America under General Charles Cornwallis had entrenched itself in the town, and Washington had marched south to confront and destroy them. The siege of Yorktown was characterized by a devastating bombardment, perfect timing, and a spectacular assault. It is considered George Washington’s greatest military success and the decisive battle of the American Revolutionary War.
