In June 2025, many of us are taking part in the 30-Day “On This Date” Coach4aday Challenge. Each day, the challenge encourages participants to engage in a meaningful or enjoyable activity inspired by a historical event, anniversary, or personal memory tied to that specific date. My post today is the 250th Anniversary of BUNKER HILL the first major battle of the Revolutionary War.
The Battle of Bunker Hill took place on June 17, 1775, during the early stages of the American Revolutionary War, primarily fought on nearby Breed’s Hill in Charlestown, Massachusetts. Although the British won the battle, they suffered heavy casualties, which demonstrated the determination and strength of the colonial militia. The battle became a symbol of American resistance and inspired confidence in the fight for independence.

June 17th-Bunker Hill
There is a saying that applies to warfare “Lose the Battle Win the War“. This quote is attributed to Pyrrhus of Epirus who was a Greek King. The British did in fact win the Battle at Bunker Hill but paid a steep price to claim a “Pyrrhic victory“.
