考彭斯战场的七月四日庆典
地方性遗产
有些历史学家表示，Chesnee
附近的考彭斯战役是独立战争中，一场计画出色且赢的漂亮的战役，而这都得感谢一名美军将领的聪明策略；您知道战争的发生经过吗？
在1781年1月17日的战役中，陆军将军丹尼尔摩根(Daniel
Morgan)做了两件事：他预测英军的可能回应，并善用英军的错误致胜。战争进行中，他命令他的手下撤退，让英军以为他们打赢了这场战役，进而决定继续前进；然后，美军再将英军包围起来，一举歼灭。考彭斯战役的胜利鼓舞了美军继续这场战争，进而在维吉尼亚州的约克镇取得最后的胜利。
国家公园管理局会在七月四日时，于考彭斯战役遗址举行庆祝活动，出席的人会穿上当时的服装，示范独立战争时期的生活型态及战争状况。最后再以烟火表演做为退出。
Some historians say that the battle at Cowpens, near Chesnee, South Carolina, was the single most brilliantly planned and fought battle of the Revolutionary War. This was thanks to a clever strategy on behalf of an American general. Do you know what happened?
During the battle, on January 17, 1781, Brigadier General Daniel Morgan did two things -- he predicted how the British would react and he took advantage of mistakes that the British troops made. At one point, he ordered his men to retreat, and the British, thinking they had won the battle, charged forward. Then, the Americans surrounded the British and defeated them. The victory at Cowpens inspired Americans to continue the war to victory at Yorktown, Virginia.
On the Fourth of July, the National Park Service celebrates at Cowpens National Battlefield with people in period costumes and demonstrations of life and battle during the Revolutionary War. It all ends with a great display of fireworks.
