Standing Your Ground: Bunker Hill's Determined Defense

Twice the British army charged up Breed's Hill in precise formation. Twice the colonial militia held their position, pouring devastating fire into the advancing redcoats and repulsing professional soldiers. The ground shook with cannon fire from warships in the harbor. Thick smoke filled the air until men could barely see. Friends fell beside them. But they stayed in their trenches, methodically reloaded, and fired again.

They only retreated when their ammunition was completely gone—and even then, they fought hand-to-hand with musket butts and fists to cover each other's withdrawal. The British technically "won" the hill, but at a staggering cost of over 1,000 casualties, including many officers. The colonists had proven beyond doubt that they could stand toe-to-toe against the world's finest professional army.
