In the context of the air forces, I would point out that in Western Europe (at least) many of the Commonwealth and European squadrons relied upon RAF ground crews to support their fighting men. Plus, of course, the logistic tail was predominately UK British. This would imply a rather higher UK British contribution than the statistics of dead would suggest.
This may be less true for the armies, though it might apply to the navies. This discounts the massive contribution of the Commonwealth to the RAF's training programme, which perhaps only goes to show that there is no easy answer.
