In 1645, a group of men who were trained for the immediate defense of the colony was formed in the Massachusetts Colony. "The Minuteman" is the term known in the United States to call farmers and colonists, who were trained to go to fight at the right time, hence the term "Minute Man", just by hearing the alarm, they were already prepared to go defend their interests.
These units continued to receive training in times of peace in many cities of the colonies, normally they met 4 times a year.
The officers were chosen by popular vote and the troops were made up of people from the colony, with a minimum age of 25 years.
They did not follow the pattern of a European army, they were rather undisciplined militiamen who took advantage of their knowledge of the wild territories where they lived and their skill with firearms to face the British troops who were unaware of this form of fighting.
These rapid action groups played a very important role in the War of Independence.
They have been immortalized in a multitude of statues and paintings that are scattered throughout the country, since they represent for the Americans the spirit of struggle and sacrifice for freedom.
