Abstract
The first order of business for the new government is recruiting and organizing an army. Many volunteers are disadvantaged men hoping to earn enough money to buy land or a business. Their term of service begins in the spring and ends in the fall at which point recruitment must begin all over again. Not all of those who sign up are fighting against the crown. For example, Ethan Allen and the Green Mountain Boys join the patriotic cause in order to get a favorable post-war decision from the Continental Congress related to their boundary dispute with New York.
