Cornwallis' Last Shot!

Oh my.... I just got news on what just happened to Clueless, hopefully he shall be back soon. Anyway, before that incident, we had just heard of Lieutenant Colonel William Washington's counterattack from the back of the British lines. I have set up my camp at that spot, and I have a great view of the battle. I can also see that Cornwallis is not happy. His men are dropping rappidly as I can see from this point, it looks like America might have an advantage. Oh look, there goes Cornwallis behind us, let's go see what is going on. Camera man, can you get a look at what he is saying?

Shoot grapeshot into the confusion. It's the only shot we have.

Grapeshot? Uh oh, I suggest we get behind the lines. For our viewers who don't know, grapheshot means putting iron balls into the cannon ball and shooting it out. I've seen it before in other battles. Although this is quite a brave choice. His men could-oh and there goes the cannon. Let's get closer to the action.
