This day few of the 214 artillery pieces stand as mute witness’s to the end of the American Revolution 230 years ago……. America had its independence after a long fought struggle, take a moment and think About the men who fought and forged the country we call America….. We should all be grateful for their sacrifice.Captured at Yorktown :Some 8,000 troops, 214 artillery pieces, thousands of muskets, 24 transport ships, + wagons and horses were captured.
