No. The Americans had to reteat from their position on Breed's Hill and fall back to Bunker Hill. The British successfully gained the ground but it was a costly battle as they lost many officers and men. This battle did demonstrate to both Americans and British that the American colonist was able and willing to fight for his land.
yes because they did kill a large number of British soldiers and only left because they didn't have enough ammo. and the british only killed 400 some of there soldiers
It was a moral victory because, though the Americans lost the hill, they inflicted heavy damage unto the British. This let the British know that the Americans were ready to fight. The British went through three waves of infantry trying to capture the hill, and they lost nearly 1000 men. In addition, the Americans had done this against the most professional and well trained troops in the world. Only the Prussian army may have been a better army.
because the green mountains boy from the village came and saved the worl no matter what they ate and the save the earth and world!!!
This battle showed the war would be hard, long, and expensive on both sides.
The Battle of Bunker Hill, fought actually on Breed's Hill, was a British victory (though a Pyrrhic one). The Redcoats lost 1,054 men, included 226 killed. The patriots casualties were 143 dead, 271 wounded. and 30 captured.

In the American Revolution: the Battle of Saratoga, with some 2400 casualties. The Battle of Bunker Hill (Breed's Hill) was the first great American battle of the Revolution with many more British casualties, though the British still captured the hill and it was nothing compared with the turning-point American victory at Saratoga.
Though it was an important battle during WWII it cannot be called the most important event in history

The last half of the American Revolutionary War was fought in the south, in Georgia, The Carolinas, and finally, in Virginia.
it proved to the British that the colonists had the will to fight. even though they lost they had the will to fight.
The battle is named after Bunker Hill in Charlestown, Massachusetts, which was peripherally involved in the battle. It was the original objective of both the colonial and British troops, though the majority of combat took place on the adjacent hill which later became known as Breed's Hill.

Because they didn't lose as many men as the British lost.
It was the first major battle of the Revolutionary War. Even though the British won this battle, it showed the British that the Patriots were going to be a bigger threat than they originally thought.
