American militia. The minute men were American militia that would be ready to fight on a minutes notice during the American Revolution.
"Minutemen" was the name given to the special members of the colonial militia who were supposed to be ready and able to fight "on a minute's notice". About one-quarter of the Colonial militia, primarily those who were youngest and least tied down by job and family responsibilities, were Minutemen.
The militia played a big role in early tensions between the colonies and Great Britain. For example, the minute men were militia men trained to right on a minutes notice. They were the people who fought the British in the battle of Lexington and Concord.
