Explanation:

George Washington was an American general, Lord Cornwallis was a British general, and Benjamin Franklin was a statesman and scientist, not a general who assisted the American army in the way described.
2. In 1781, General Cornwallis's troops surrendered at Yorktown, which was a decisive moment in the American Revolution. Charleston, Manhattan, and Massachusetts are not the locations of this surrender.
