What was the first site of the first exchange of gunfire between the redcoats and the minutemen?
Gabe80
Yes, it was the first exchange.
The redcoats (The British Soldiers) were heading to Concord to take over a munitions that were being stored there. They had to go through Lexington where the minutemen were waiting after being notofied of their pending arrival by Paul Revere. As the British Army's advance guard under Major John Pitcairn entered Lexington at sunrise on April 19, 1775, 77 Lexington militiamen, led by Captain John Parker, emerged from Buckman Tavern and stood in ranks on the village common watching them, and spectators (somewhere between 40 and 100) watched from along the side of the road. There is disagreement on who fired the first shot which is widely recognized as the first shot of the American Revolution.

A fusillade is a burst of gunfire (from the French fusil, a rifle). Merciless means without mercy. So a merciless fusillade is a burst of gunfire without mercy.
