Question

How did the colonial army keep itself in the war during the difficult early years and what was the turning point?

Answer 1

The war that was fought during this time was the American War of Independence. The colonialists were tired of being ruled by Great Britain so they formed an army to fight for their independence. The colonial army kept itself in the war during the difficult early years by trading with the enemy and refusing to pay for British military operations. The turning point was the growing chaos in Western America and the British were no longer able fight the colonialists. At the end of the day, the colonial army won the war for their independence from the British.
