All kinds of people from all walks of life from professionals to farmers. The remarkable thing about the Continental Army was that they were not professional soldiers yet had to fight those who were. They received some training, but they were poorly trained, prepared, and equipped. They fought Indian style (guerrilla style) which was foreign to the British who were uses to lining up on a large field and attacking the on coming army that had lined up opposite them at the other end of the field. Because of the genius of George Washington and the persistence of the men, the Colonials were able to succeed in the end.
