Benjamin Martin was known as a hero to his people because of his actions during the French and Indian War. During the French and Indian War, Benjamin Martin's friends were massacred because of the French and Indians. When his army gathers the French and Indians at Fort Wilderness, he shows no compassion towards them and kills them gradually. He then sends the body parts of those people back to their respective people, terminating the Indian treaty with the French. In the movie, Benjamin's son, Gabriel Martin, enrolls in the colonial army to fight for their independence against Britain, in opposition to his father's will. As the warfare grows closer to their residence in South Carolina,
Gabriel returns home two years later, stumbling wounded into the family home and carrying military dispatches. The next day, a military skirmish have the Martins caring for the wounded from both sides. British soldiers - the ruthless Green Dragoons cavalry - arrive and kill the Colonial wounded, burn down the Martin house and arrest Gabriel as a spy, intending to hang him. Ben's next eldest son Thomas (Smith) is shot and killed by the leader of the Green Dragoons, Colonel William Tavington.
