Lord Cornwallis. Incorrect.
Lord Cornwallis was at all times under the control of Henry Clinton in New York who had lead the largest sea borne invasion in history outside of D-Day June 6, 1944 when we returned to repay the French.
The entire capture of Cornwallis was French. 80% of casualties were French and there is no monument to them anywhere. That is a national disgrace to us. The capture was 100% impossible but for the French army in America coordinating with the French navy to blockade, in complete surprise, the York River to deny Cornwallis the resupply/or evacuation he was waiting for in Yorktown.
