WORLD’
The Massachusetts Militia is storing guns and ammo in the town of Concord,
MA. About 700 British troops are sent to seize the military supplies. Patriot
leaders learn of the British plan and begin organizing.
The night before the scheduled British raid, Paul Revere takes off on his famous
"Midnight Ride" to warn the local militiamen (Minutemen). The first shots are
fired as the sun begins to rise in Lexington, MA. The militias are outnumbered
and fall back as the British advance upon Concord. At Concord, approximately
500 "rag tag" militiamen fight and defeat the King's troops.
The "red coats" retreat after a pitched battle in open territory. More militiamen
arrive soon thereafter and inflict heavy damage on the British, firing upon from
behinds trees as they march back towards Boston. The war for American
independence is on! The Battle of Lexington and Concord will go down in
history as "the shot heard around the world."
