Instead he convinced French Adm. DeGrasse to bring his fleet to the Chesapeake. Once Washington received news that DeGrasse was on the way to the Chesapeake, he changed plans and marched his army south, along with Rochambeau’s 5,000 French troops to confront the British under Gen. Cornwallis at Yorktown. The arrival of the French fleet kept the British fleet at bay and prevented Cornwallis from evacuating by sea.

Von Steuben was an undistinguished, mid-level Prussian army officer and mercenary who came to the US, possibly to escape debt. Yet he brought with him Prussian discipline and a textbook knowledge of European drills and battlefield tactics including use of the bayonet. During the winter of 1777–78 he trained the Continental troops at Valley Forge, instilling a level of discipline unseen in the American army.
