Who was Ethan Allen's group of fighters?

Ethan Allen led a group of fighters known as the Green Mountain Boys. This militia was formed in the late 1760s to defend the land claims of Vermont settlers against New York's colonial authorities. The Green Mountain Boys played a significant role in the American Revolutionary War, notably capturing Fort Ticonderoga in 1775. Their efforts helped to rally support for the revolutionary cause in the early stages of the conflict.
