[edit] notes
- Use peak strengths for both during entire war...
- "At the end of June this total grew again when Congress voted to maintain a regular army of 35,735 officers and soldiers." [1]
- " In June 1812 the (US) regular army had only 11,000 men, 5,000 of whom were new recruits who barely knew how to handle a gun." [2]
