Viktor [21]

Answer: C.) British officers were often forced to serve in subordinate roles to their colonial counterparts.

For the most part, this was the opposite. The frustration was on the part of the colonial forces as they were often forced to serve in subordinate roles.

The clash of command was a serious problem for the militias. British officers generally regarded themselves as higher than colonial ones, which colonial officers considered an offence. The solution was to divide each militia unit into smalled commands, and to recommisision militia officers with a rank of captain and above with a rank of captain. This demoted all the high-ranking colonial officers and placed them as subordinate to British captains. The new system was extremely unpopular with colonials and caused many of them to resign from the military.
