Each colony had traditionally provided for its own defenses through the use of local militia. Continental army: Seeking to coordinate military efforts, the Continental Congress established (on paper) a regular army the Continental Army in June 1775, and appointed George Washington as commander-in-chief. The development of the Continental Army was always a work in progress, and Washington reluctantly augmented the regular troops with militia throughout the war. Conway Cabal, Newburgh Conspiracy, Charles Lee, William Smallwood, John Eager Howard, Daniel Brodhead, William Crawford, Edward Hand American militia: John Stark, William Whipple, Nicholas Herkimer Frontier: Daniel Boone, George Rogers Clark International leaders allied with the American Patriots: Johann de Kalb, Tadeusz Kociuszko, Francisco de Miranda, Kazimierz Puaski, Friedrich von Steuben, Gilbert du Motier- marquis de La Fayette, John Paul Jones
