Lafayette
The Marquis de Lafayette kept Lord Cornwallis' troops pinned down near Yorktown, VA until reserves and the rest of the army arrived. He only had about one third the number of troops as Cornwallis.

Cornwallis surrendered to the American Troops at Yorktown, Virginia on October 19, 1781. General Jean Rochambeau and his troops, who were French, came to Rhode Island to help the Americans. Some French also came from the West Indies. Together they trapped Cornwallis and his men, forcing him to surrender his troops of 7,000-8,000 men.
