This category includes officers and soldiers who served as Patriots in the Connecticut militia or other state units during the American Revolutionary War.

People from Connecticut who fought in units on the British side are categorized under Category:Loyalists in the American Revolution.

People from Connecticut who fought in the Continental Army are listed in Category:Continental Army officers or Category:Continental Army soldiers. Some soldiers served in the Continental Army and the state militia; they should be listed in both categories.

People in this category should not also be placed in Category:People of Connecticut in the American Revolution unless they were notable in Connecticut during the Revolution for reasons other than their service in the militia.
