What did General gauge have to do with the American Revolution?
General Gage was the commander of all British troops in America at the start of the Revolutionary War. It is generally believed that he clundered by ordering a frontal assault on the Americans fortifications on Breed's Hill at the Battle of Bunker Hill. He had been advised to land troops by boat behind the Americans left flank and attack them from there. If the British had landed behind the Americans, they would have had to retreat from their fortifications or get trapped on the hills. Instead, Gage ordered the frontal attack to show the Americans that the British army could just swat the Americans away, but the Americans showed him that the Americans knew how to fight back. Later, Gage was forced to evacuate Boston and shortly he was replaced and went home.
