  • La bataille de Droop Mountain est une bataille qui s'est déroulée le 6 novembre 1863 dans le comté de Pocahontas, en Virginie-Occidentale, pendant la guerre de Sécession. Les forces confédérées engagent, mais ne réussissent pas à empêcher les forces de l'Union sous les ordres du brigadier-général W. W. Averell de lancer un raid conjoint contre les chemins de fer de la Confédération à partir d'un rendez-vous avec d'autres troupes fédérales. Droop Mountain est l'un des plus grands engagements en Virginie-Occidentale. La victoire de l'Union se traduit par l'effondrement de la résistance confédérée dans l'État. (fr)
  • Bitwa pod Droop Mountain – jedna z bitew wojny secesyjnej, stoczona 6 listopada 1863 roku w okolicach hrabstwa Pocahontas pomiędzy oddziałami Unii dowodzonymi przez generała Williama Averella oraz siłami Konfederacji pod dowództwem Johna Echolsa. Bitwa miała na celu atak sił unionistycznych na linie kolejowe należące do Konfederatów. Zwycięstwo unionistów w bitwie doprowadziło do zmniejszenia i konsekwentnego zaprzestania działań zbrojnych w Wirginii Zachodniej przez siły konfederackie. (pl)
