Pertempuran Bunker Hill

Pertempuran Bunker Hill dipertarungkan pada tanggal 17 Juni 1775, saat Pengepungan Boston pada tahap awal Perang Revolusi Amerika. Nama pertempuran ini diambil dari nama Bunker Hill di Charlestown, Massachusetts, yang terlibat secara terpisah dalam pertempuran tersebut. Pertempuran tersebut adalah tujuan utama bagi kedua pasukan kolonial dan pasukan Britania, meskipun sebagian besar pertempuran ini terjadi di bukit yang berdekatan yang kemudian dikenal sebagai Breed's Hill.

1. Chidsey p. 122 counts 1,400 in the night-time fortification work. Frothingham is unclear on the number of reinforcements arriving just before the battle breaks out. In a footnote on p. 136, as well as on p. 190, he elaborates the difficulty in getting an accurate count.
2. Chidsey p. 90 says the initial force requested was 1,550, but Howe requested and received reinforcements before the battle began. Frothingham p. 137 puts the total British contingent likely to be over 3,000. Furthermore, according to Frothingham p. 148, additional reinforcements arrived from Boston after the second attack was repulsed. Frothingham, p. 191 notes the difficulty in attaining an accurate count of British troops involved.
