If that answers your question, I would be glad to answer more. And. that is most likely why Americans won the Revolutionary war. At first you yourself would think 50,000 British soldiers, against 17,000 unprepared Americans. -------Kevin =P

∙ 11y agoThe Continental Army wore no uniforms-- only their everyday clothes. Many had no guns, so they carried spears and axes. Some had fought in the French and Indian War, but most had no military experience. Many were farmers who had just enlisted signed up, for duty in the army.
The British army was made up of professional soldiers with training and experience. The British army also had thousands of mercenaries hired solders.

The Continental Army and the British Army were significantly different in their organizational structure, levels of experience, and funding. The Continental Army was an undisciplined, unprepared fighting force with makeshift uniforms and sloppy tactics (at least at the beginning of the war).

Americans did not follow European Rules of Engagement. They would shoot the British officers and the common solders had no idea what to do. The loss of an American Officer did not cause any such problem. The Americans knew the land. They knew birch and other roots provided vitamin C in winter.
