Yorktown Battlefield
From On October 19, 1781, a British army under General Charles Lord Cornwallis was forced to surrender to General Washington's combined American and French army. Upon hearing of their defeat, British Prime Minister Frederick Lord North is reputed to have said, Oh God, it's all over. And it was. The victory secured independence for the United States and significantly changed the course of world history.

Second Tuesday Forum Presents: 1781: The Battle of Yorktown with Ranger Linda Williams - Yorktown Battlefield Colonial National Historic Park
The Saratoga National Historical Park, NY, United States.
A quick tour of the Saratoga National Historical Park, Stillwater, NY, United States.
This is an important battlefield site because it was the site of the Battles of Saratoga, the first significant American military victory of the American Revolutionary War in 1777. Basically the hotch potch American militia fought and comprehensively beat the might of the British Army.
I literally had 45 minutes to run around the park before it was closed up so I couldn't really give a good summary of events here in 1777. All I will say is the park is a beautiful location to visit, has plenty of nice views (and walking routes) and a centre with lots of info (which I didn't have time to absorb properly).
