The Battle of Bunker Hill which the “Redcoats TECHNICALLY won?” Yeah. With “victories” as costly as Bunker Hill, Britain would have been defeated years earlier!!! Leave it to the NY Times to root AGAINST America even 200+ years ago!!!!

Well, they did take the ground back (Breed’s and Bunker Hills), but they had over half their force killed (over 1,000, including many officers) while we lost 400. A very costly “victory.”
