Thomas Gage, a British general during the American Revolutionary War, was ordered to enforce British authority in the American colonies and suppress colonial dissent. His primary task was to seize colonial military supplies and arrest key revolutionary leaders, particularly in Massachusetts. This culminated in his orders to march to Lexington and Concord in April 1775, which ultimately sparked the outbreak of armed conflict between Britain and the American colonies.
