General Howe
About one third of the British troops were killed but the patriots ran out of ammo.
Bunker Hill was and is a Boston holiday, strictly cerebrated in Boston. Not Cambridge, not Lowell, just us Bostonians. But Bunker Hill was where the British Army caused the Patriots to retreat to Cambridge. The reason that I think that we celebrate is is because it was our inspiration to fight on. But no, we didn't win that one, buddy.
The battle started on Bunker Hill, but soon moved to Breed's hill. The Patriots fought on the hill, because it gave them a better range for shooting, and better protection from the British.
General Thomas Gage was in overall command for the British. Generals Howe, Burgoyne and Clinton took part and commanded on the field.
The Patriots lose Bunker Hill to the British because the Patriots ran out of ammunition. Peace out home brotha!
