Grant commanded the Union. Lee commanded the Confederacy.
700 soldiers of the British Army had been ordered to Concord to take possession of a rebel arms depot. The rebels had been tipped off and were waiting for them. What I have found was the Battle of Lexington and Concord at first were forces from Britain and the Colonies facing each other without fighting. There is a POSSIBILITY that the famous "shot fired heard round the world" that began the battle and the war was actually a hunter in the nearby forest which triggered nervous soldiers into battle.

At the time there were several generals who led various parts of the confederate army during the civil war. In the case of battles where multiple generals were on the field, each general would still be in charge of their component part of the army but would take orders from someone who was appointed as the head general. A couple of generals who would be considered to be head generals would be Jackson and Lee. General Lee was the confederate general in charge at the Battle of Gettysburg even though there were another half dozen generals also there. After battles such as this, the Americans started to bring in a system where generals could outrank other generals in the field. This eventually became the basis for the 5 star rankings of generals where only one 5 star general would be posted in the field of battle in order to stop confusion between like starred generals.
i think its and
guerilla warfare was used in the revolution in lexington and concord. when the british came running back to boston american militia men shot them from behind trees and rocks. instead of standing straight infront of each other and shooting
Generals get their starts by moving up in rank in the military. Each amount of stars stand for a different rank.

One from each of the 10 tribes.
There were more than six hundred Yankee generals, and about 425 Confederates - too many to try to list here. There is a book, Ezra Warner's "Generals in Gray" which has a short biography of each of the 425 Confederate generals. I think somebody since has done the same for the Union generals.
No one knows.....
The Battles of Lexington and Concord were fought on April 19, 1775, in Middlesex County, Province of Massachusetts Bay, within the towns of Lexington, Concord, Lincoln, Menotomy and Cambridge, near Boston. The American Revolution was the product of two theoretical questions that the British could not translate into policy. The first was how to collect revenue from the colonies in order to help pay for the military and administrative machine that, in large part, benefitted the colonies. The second was how to exercise Parliamentary control over the colonies while still allowing the colonies the self-rules that was clearly spelled out in each colony's charter.
