Gun Crew at Jockey Hollow

Sometimes known as The Queen of the Battlefield, cannons were a critical weapon used in the American Revolution. At times that the enemies would be using their cannons and the infantry were not supported with them, the infantry normally would lose the battle. There were many times that the British units did not have any Militia units that would stand up against them. This was simply because they rarely would have any cannons of their own that they could use.
