Just an FYI for you and all your Celtic brethren and sistren, 30% of the American Revoltionary Army was Irish (many also fought on the Crown's side, but not this high a percentage).

Source: A Narrative of a Revolutionary Soldier, Signet Classic, 2001, by Joseph Plumb Martin. (Irish per cent from the Introduction by Thomas Fleming).
