Israel Putnam was a prominent American military officer during the American Revolutionary War. Known for his leadership at the Battle of Bunker Hill in 1775, he famously urged his troops to "don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes" to conserve ammunition. Before the war, Putnam was also a successful farmer and a veteran of the French and Indian War. His contributions to the American cause and his bold leadership made him a significant figure in early American military history.
