The American Revolutionary War took place from 1775 to 1783. It is also known as the American Revolution. The revolutionary war began on April 19, 1775, when British troops confronted local militia in Lexington and Concord, Massachusetts. During the whole war, the military and local militia supplemented the mainland (federal) army. The total number of men who serve is unknown. Men between the ages of 16 and 60 can support the Great Army during the war by the Great Army, the National Army, or the local militia group.
