No American troops were involved in the Battle of Lake Erie. Troops are people who fight in armies on land. This was a naval battle and involved sailors, not troops. The US force consisted of five (5) schooners, three (3) brigs and one (1) sloop.

Schooners could be crewed by around 16 and Brigs by 12-16. Then each would have had a contingent of marines, as well as possibly some additional crew members..
