Revolutionary War Battles
Before Congress met again the situation had changed. On the morning of April 19, 1775, shots had been exchanged
by colonials and British soldiers, men had been killed, and a revolution had begun. On the very day
(May 10, 1775) that the Second Continental Congress met,
Ethan Allen and his Green Mountain Boys, together with a force under
Benedict Arnold, took Fort Ticonderoga from the British, and two days later
Seth Warner captured Crown Point. Boston was under British siege, and before that siege was climaxed by the
costly British victory usually called the battle of Bunker Hill
(June 17, 1775) the Congress had chosen (June 15, 1775) George Washington as
commander in chief of the Continental Armed Forces.
