Armed British soldiers patrolled the streets of small towns in Boston primarily to enforce colonial laws and maintain order in response to rising tensions between the British government and American colonists. Their presence aimed to suppress protests against British policies, particularly after events like the Boston Massacre in 1770, which heightened animosity. The soldiers also sought to protect British officials and loyalists while asserting British authority in a growing atmosphere of resistance and unrest among colonists.

Boston was really the epicenter of the American Revolution. Many patriotic groups operated out of the city, and in response to anti-British activities in the city, extra redcoats were stationed there. With the heavy penalties imposed on Boston, many natives were resentful. Eventually this led to some protesters provoking a patrol of British soldiers who opened fire and killed several Americans.
Yes, he did various things during the revolution. Even though Longfellow's poem named a poem after him as having warned that the British was coming he didn't do it. He met a British patrol and had his horse taken away. He did draw the handbills about the Boston massacre showing British soldiers firing at colonial people. His art for this was more propaganda than reality. He did take part in the Boston Tea Party and was a patriot leader, but his significance rests more as a craftsman and on his industrial perspicacity. He had a foundry and hardware business and had the first successful sheet copper mill. These were important because the navy could have copper bottoms on the ships.
He wasn't hanged, he died of old age at 83 years in 1818 at his home.You may be thinking of Nathan Hale, who was hanged because of spying, quoting famously, "I regret that I only have one life to give for my country".
The Bostonn Massacre was fought between minutemen (citizens of the American colonies who vlouteered to be ready for battle in "minutes") and British soldiers on patrol duty.
It didn't - I go to a mixed school in Belfast I live in a mixed area The british soldiers no longer patrol the streets I feel safe going into town with my friends :)
Calvin Coolidge ended it. He used the state militia to patrol the streets.

A proactive patrol is out on the streets, looking to see if anything is happening. A reactive patrol waits for something to be reported, and then goes straight to investigate it.
The collective nouns for a group of soldiers on patrol depends on the size of the group of soldiers, for example:a unit of soldiersa squad of soldiersa company of soldiersa platoon of soldiersa division of soldiersan army of soldiers
