During the American Revolution, Britain relied primarily on its army to subdue the rebellious colonies. At its peak, the British army in North America had approximately 50,000 officers and men, constituting the largest expeditionary force sent overseas by any British governments.

The totals in North America specifically are listed in parentheses.

April 1775: 27,063 (6,991)
March 1776: 45,130 (14,374)
August 1777: 57,637 (23,694)
October 1778: 112,239 (52,561)
July 1779: 131,691 (47,624)
September 1780: 147,152 (44,554)
September 1781: 149,282 (47,301)
March 1782: 150,310 (47,223)
