Best Answer

The British hired mercenaries. German troops known as Hessians. The reason Germany drew ire was that these soldiers were hired out to the British by the German government. The British used the Hessians in several conflicts, including in Ireland, but they are most widely associated with combat operations in the American Revolutionary War. About 30,000 German soldiers served in the Thirteen Colonies during the American Revolution.
