An American colonial militia called the Minutemen, due to the fact they claimed they could prepare themselves to fight in a minute. The militia had just cleared the cache of arms they had stashed in Concord. The British were going there to take the cache of arms themselves (they learned from a tip by a loyalist), but the militia got there first and drove them out, firing on them as they marched back to Boston. It was the second battle of the beginning of the American Revolution, following a colonial loss at Lexington, where the militia had met the redcoats on their way to Concord from Boston in the first place.
