The Minutemen were basically a group of regular folks from New England during the American Revolutionary War who were ready to fight at a moment’s notice. They were like a speedy and flexible military force that could quickly respond to any threats. These guys were an upgraded version of earlier fast-response groups in the colonies.

When the American Revolution kicked off, the Minutemen were some of the first ones on the battlefield. They made up around 25% of the whole militia, and they were typically younger, more agile, and got their weapons from local governments. Even though they were part of the larger militia system, they were the ones who could get into action ASAP.
