Battle of Paoli, Battlefield Pennsylvania

British spies locate Gen. "Mad" Anthony Wayne's camp at Paoli Tavern on Sept. 20, 1777, and British troops quickly plan a surprise night attack. British troops were ordered to remove the flints from their muskets to ensure a silent approach to the American camp and the out-numbered British force routed colonial troops and inflicted significant casualties.
