The Great Britain 10th Regiment of Foot, nicknamed the "Springers" and later known as the Royal Lincolnshire Regiment, fought in America during the American Revolution. In 1775, the regiment was stationed in Boston, and its grenadier company and light infantry participated in the Battle of Lexington and Concord under Lord Hugh Percy. The regiment also fought in the battles at Bunker Hill, Long Island, Manhattan, Germantown, Monmouth, and in the defense of Newport, Rhode Island. The regiment returned to England in December 1778.
