Fort Necessity
Fort Necessity, built by George Washington in 1754, played a pivotal role in the early stages of the French and Indian War. Situated in present-day Pennsylvania, the hastily constructed fort became a symbol of Washington's inexperience. In July 1754, it succumbed to a French and Native American force, leading to Washington's surrender. This event marked the beginning of hostilities, eventually escalating into the larger conflict between European powers for control of North America. The battlefield is now part of the National Park Service's Mount Vernon Trail.

Kings Mountain
In the summer of 1780, after a string of defeats, the American Revolution was not going well. Then, in October, came the Battle of Kings Mountain. Fought on October 7th, 1780, it was an important victory for the patriot cause. The Battle of Kings Mountain was the first major patriot victory to occur after the British invasion of Charleston, SC in May 1780. The park preserves the site of this important battle. Thomas Jefferson called it "The turn of the tide of success." The battle was a turning point in the war, and its significance is still commemorated at Kings Mountain National Military Park.
