Answer 1

I'm thinking it may be D but not sure. Thought I'd get a double check on this.

Answer 2

The tactical advantage of the situation was great, by taking Yorktown it pushed the British army back to a peninsula where they believed they would be resupplied by the British navy, instead they were met by both the French and the Colonists Navy. Preventing any supplies from reaching the British. I would think it is C, because it cannot be D, as the first win for the Colonists was at Concord.

Answer 3

Hmm, I'll wait for a seconds opinion but you may be right =]. Thanks.

Answer 4

Do what you will! :P

Answer 5

at first i thought this as A but now that i read it over...i don't think so...i think C is your best option. But i know that Yorktown was the most significant battle because that was where they were freed of all foreign rule...
