- Who where the minute men? What did it mean to be a colonial soldier in Massachusetts at the start of the American Revolution? What arms and equipment did they carry and how often did they train? Watch and find out!
Sad everyones talking about fallout 4 but this is some really good history
@Rijal Jose its sad cause its simply the settlement meme and also I'm fucking 13 dude
@@zachwhite7148 It's funny how kids are these days. But, thanks for enjoying this topic, I hope your peers don't discourage you. I recommend looking for sincerity and what's meaningful.
@@zachwhite7148 but fallout 4 is cooler then just some history
@@ATECRIO joe are kids these days explain?
Yeah they do have good history but it's not "sad" that everyone's talking about fallout 4 it's a good game and you really didn't have a point there to say that, no criticism
Which reminds me that another settlement needs our help, let me mark it on your map
Imagine if Americans had this mentality today?
You are implying that all 330+ million Americans don't have this thinking?😐
@Jonathan Galindo they don't, the tyranny and governmental over reach happening in today's time is not being contested, took very little for the men during those times to pick up arms for taxes against tea and even taxes on whiskey rebellion
Not enough do. Most never will.

@@carlcarl9681 Ever heard of the republican party and their cause?
Lots of guts for wearing an uniform and going out in the night. Only one thing can sparks that light, so good freedom is.
West Texas minute man here. Love and Respect to all.
The minute men needs our help I’ll put the location on your pipboy

My favourite part is when Preston gravy tell that a settlement needs my help and mark's it on my map.
I remember reading in an Osprey book about the battles around "Boston 1775" and one important thing to note was many of the militiamen were veterans from the French and Indian War. I believe Captain Parker, one of the commanding officers at the battle famous for giving the order not to fire unless fired upon, was a veteran of Roger's Rangers.
yes fallout 4 told me about the minutemen but history made me google them....im not even American.
Me too. It was a great grass root organization when everything is still work in progress.
Other settlement needs our help
Themed factions. in Fallout New Vegas (which made by Black Isle old gangs, approved by Bethesda) there were Caesar's Legion. which are themed after Old Roman Empire.
Minutemen in F4 are themed after eponymous colonial era militiamen. though their uniform became increasingly closer to Continental Army.
And player became their leader very immediately.
You’re tripping me .
It's sad that history isn't told anymore. My past teachers would even teach me stuff from the past that the school didn't require us to learn. I was taught about the natives, slaves (all races), and the minute men. I always thought the minute men were sooooo gangster. Just imagine sleeping, having a great dream, and them BOOM, and you have to gear up in less than a minute. Awesome.
The failure of the majority of American towns and suburbs to uphold and maintain their own militia is a disgrace...the "national guard" is not your states militia, it's a federal mandate system that subverts a states rights to defend themselves.
When will another settlement need their help
Id sayyy now
1:18 A bridge to Sanctuary Hills in Fallout 4 ?
This is such an amazing and good history I’m glad that the minutemen are getting more well known sure they’re just known for fallout but I’m still glad that history like this is more well known like the fallout minutemen are actually kinda accurate to what they actually did
True American patriots these men were
We need these guys back to combat “gunmen”
@@Cruzer871and tyrants
Did the minutemen have any type of ranks? Like Captain or Sergeant?
Thank you for asking! Yes they did. Minute man companies (40-60 men) were modeled closely on the regular army. Each company had corporals and sergeants (Non-commissioned officers) as well as 2 lieutenants and a Captain (commissioned officers). Further, each company was combined with several other companies to form a regiment which was commanded by a Colonel, Lt. Colonel, and a Major. However, when the war began on April 19, 1775 this level of organization was still incomplete.
@@MinuteManNPS Thank you so much!!
@@UncertifiedAttorney Good question. It's a bit complicated. Most often when the militia was called upon to reinforce the Continental Army militiamen from a particular area were drafted from their "parent" company or regiment and formed into a short-term provisional regiment. Such units were usually named for the commanding officer and still retained their regional identity. Only in cases of imminent invasion would entire militia units field together.
@@MinuteManNPS Wow thanks man. Your smart!
@@MinuteManNPS How were their ranks decided? "Real" military experience? Age?
That statue was in bridge just outside of sanctuary hills in FO4
Who dislikes this? And for what reason? Weirdos..
@Rick Sanchez • 78 years ago Yeah, probably. Hahaha!

Me. It's myth. Anyone who has read American history knows the Minutemen and the Militia were unreliable. You don't even have to look very hard to find it. Washington, Gates and Greene all said so. They'd know because they were the ones who had to whip them (literally) into shape. More often than not, the Minutemen and the Militia ran from professional soldiers.
The modern day image of the minuteman is a creation of the American gun lobby.
@Spaceman • 78 years ago and raiders or the bos🤣
It means another settlement needs your help I'll mark it on your map
LIBERTY > Equality!
No voy a mentir, conocí esto gracias a Fallout 4, al ver que eran un grupo que realmente querían defender a las personas y que estaban basado en un "ejército" real, me dio la curiosidad de saber, ¿realmente eran un grupo tan noble y leal como lo marcan en el juego, o tuvieron pequeñas caídas como cualquier ejército o grupo libertario?
God Country and Guns keep this Country Free.
My Grandfather Benjamin Spaulding received the alarm from Chelmsford Massachusetts
People having guns literally kept our country safe in the beginning. Without a gun, I am defenseless at my job, especially if active shooter comes. I also lack any real leverage. I can't beat up everyone who tries to fuck with me. Real.
Thanks for the video :)
I googled minutemen lore for fallout 4 but this is way more interesting
Who were they? They were Men, who realized what was at stake and that they had " skin in the game ". Where would we be had they shrunken from that realization?
RIP real minutemen
If know that you're more than likely are sick and tired about hearing about Fallout 4, BUT, you should make a video doing a compare and contrast between the REAL Minutemen and the Fallout Minutemen. I feel as if if would be an interesting subject. We have the real-world Minutemen of the American Revolution and the Minutemen of the post-apocalyptic world founding their organization after the real ones. You (or if you're apart of a group, I don't really know sorry) are so knowledgeable about this subject and I have learned lots. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us, and if you're reading this, thank you for your time. Keep up the good work.
In the 1760s my family settled from Wales into Virginia alongside the minutemen.
Thanks
Very good video
great recount
Nice video
ITS ALSO US.GOD BLESS THE ALGORITHEM
Another settlement needs our help

They did have a army later in the war however at first all they had was them
Good video but there is a settlement that needs our help i will mark it on your man
Now in 2023 the Redcoats still occupy Mass.
I think Boston could use some more tea in its harbor.
Just learned my firends family was the nickles
Are high school mascot it’s crazy how meant people did know what that meant
Another settlement needs your help general!
Lets go kill some raiders and take back the castle
Quicker than you can flick a zippo...I'm there with my country men.
Were? Don't you mean ARE?
It was their wives who gave them the name 'minutemen'.
they dont had army but normal people come to serve, but that is exactly Army. I serve in Yugoslavian army 1 year and that was a real Army. If you are dont payed will not say you are not a solder.
America the brave! Minute man here and have been ready to go for 10+years, WHERE ARE THE REST OF U P4$$13$?
SHANE ON YOU WHO CLAIM WHO 21@2M 2B American.
I'm down with it....just sounds like to up hold this tradition would violate the constitution....to come and inspect...violates the 3rd and 4th and possibly the 5th.... the 8th as well? No cruel or unusual punishment?
Minute men dies in the first minute of the battle
What a ridiculous comment. 18 fell dead at Lexington Green, but you forget The fight at Concord that followed and the British long retreat back to Boston where they lost a large portion of their forces. The colonial forces there, were comprised of minute men from many local settlements.
They were us.
3percenters
🤣😂😂
Did the 3,5 foot barrel rule apply only to the minute men or to all members of the militia?
