In the Revolutionary War period of America, those patriots who committed to being prepared to fight the British at any time were ordinary citizens throughout the nation, some with military experience but most without. Known as "minutemen" because of their intent to respond quickly when called, these militia troops demonstrated courageously throughout the war, although were called upon less and less as the war progressed and a professional force came into play on the American side.
They were ordinary people called minutemen. They had to be ready on a minute's notice. Many of them were farmers or merchants, but could grab a riffle and be ready in a minute to help defend their country.
