Editorial annotation
General-reference encyclopedia article, consulted via citation, on the Revolutionary War's casualty figures: roughly 6,800 American combat deaths and about 17,000 further deaths from disease (totalling roughly 25,000 US military deaths), 43,633 British military deaths, 7,774 German auxiliary deaths, and an estimated 25,000 civilian deaths; some sources cite American deaths as high as 70,000, likely from overlapping counts, so no single figure is treated as authoritative.
