The British Army uniforms during the Revolutionary War included red coats, and the soldiers were called "Red Coats." Minutemen were part of the local militia, but they had additional duties, and were often more well-trained. They quickly reacted when an alarm was sounded, and were often the first soldiers on the scene.
