The Battle of Chelsea Creek May 28 1775

The early days of the American Revolutionary War saw a rapid escalation of tensions and military actions following the clashes at Lexington and Concord in April 1775. As colonial militias converged on Boston, they effectively placed theBritish forces stationed there under siege. This strategic situation created a dynamic environment where both sides sought to gain advantages, secure resources, and test the resolve of the opposing force. Among the earliest significant engagements that followed the initial battles was the Battle of Chelsea Creek, which unfolded on May 28, 1775.
