Well... Wrong. Over the aprox 2 million people in the Colonies in the later decades of the 1700’s... only 230k fought in the Colonial Army.

“Well... Wrong. Over the aprox 2 million people in the Colonies in the later decades of the 1700’s... only 230k fought in the Colonial Army.”

I said the breakdown in the colonies was 1/3 supported independence; 1/3 supported the king; and 1/3 took a wait-and-see attitude. I said nothing about serving in the Continental Army.

Nice try, though.
