Officially, all males over 18 were supposed to be in the militia.

Depending on the state, 1/3 to 1/4 of the militia were to be designated "Minutemen", the first to be called out and ready when enemy troop movements were discovered.

Who won the battle of concord?

The Battles of Lexington and Concord themselves were won by the British troops who marched out of Boston in 1775 to take weapons that were being stockpiled by colonists of Massachussetts that were seeking independence. That said however, the sporadic fighting however after the battles themselves caused the British forces serious casualties. Following the Battles of Lexington and Concord the Massachussetts Colonial Militia also known as Minutemen who had lost those battles attacked the British on their return march to Boston from Lexington and Concord. These attacks were American Indian style attacks where the Minutemen were camoflagued as they attacked and the British could not see them to fight back. In the end of the Lexington and Concord engagements there were some approximately 50 Minutemen casualties of dead and wounded troops while there were some 300 British casualties of dead and wounded upon their return to Boston.
