American Revolution - "Battle of Green Spring" - July 6, 1781

British General Charles Lord Cornwallis... Benedict Arnold... Marquis de Lafayette... General Anthony Wayne.

On the morning of July 6, 1781 - advancing with several regiments, Wayne marched right into a veteran British brigade which then smashed through the American right flank with a decisive bayonet charge while the American left was hard-pressed by British light infantry.

Lafayette gave the order for the entire American force to withdraw. Wayne’s men formed a rearguard. For fifteen minutes the two sides blazed away at each other. Eventually, Wayne decided that the carnage was too great for his men and ordered a retreat. The Americans fell back to Richmond in order to regroup and re-supply. Meanwhile, Cornwallis received new orders to set up a permanent supply base... at Yorktown.
