Charleston, SC surrendered to the British 1780
• British Mistakes:
1. General Cornwallis forced colonists to give allegiance to England. They had to choose sides .
2. Colonel Tarleton refused to “give quarter” to Buford’s VA Infantry. Wounded were bayoneted, and those who surrendered were stabbed with sabers. – Atrocities made Patriots more determined, and swayed
some on the fence to side w/ Patriots. – Retaliation continued on both sides.
