Thomas Gage was a British Army officer who became a loyalist during the American Revolutionary War due to his role as the military governor of Massachusetts. He supported British authority and sought to enforce colonial obedience to British laws, which he believed were necessary for maintaining order. Gage's actions, such as attempting to seize colonial military supplies in Concord, were driven by his loyalty to the Crown and his belief in the need to suppress rebellion. His commitment ultimately placed him at the center of early conflicts between British forces and American patriots.
