The Americans begin the morning by positioning themselves between two rivers and with open flanks to ensure a head-on attack while also trapping the British. The men are ordered to shoot officers first to disorganize the British forces. The men who fire then move to the back of the militia to give the illusion of fleeing while hiding the rest of the more trained soldiers. This invites the British into the trap and begins a series of attacks leaving the British devastated extremely fast. This battle occurred after a series of losses in the south and proved the Continental Army's strength in depleting British forces in the south greatly.
