The battle has always been controversial, since after breaking Buford's line Tarleton's men slaughtered many of the Virginians who had offered to surrender, hacking them down with their sabres. Some sources, such as Buford's Adjutant Henry Bowyer and Surgeon's Mate Robert Brownfield, claim that Buford belatedly raised a white flag but was ignored by Tarleton. In Tarleton's own account, he admitted that his men, thinking their commander dead, engaged in "a vindictive asperity not easily restrained" after his horse had been shot from under him during the initial charge.
The battle took place on May 29, 1780. It lasted for severl hours.
The answer is: Virginians.
