If we look at who shows up for the last battle of Hogwarts (other than
those already at the school before HRH show up), we see the DA, the
Weasley family, Lupin, Tonks, Neville's grandmother, Aberforth and
Kingley. Aberforth seems to think he was forced in by the use of his
bar; the Weasley family was in hiding; Lupin and Tonks were busy with
taking care of little Teddy. The only member of the order who could
reasonably go out and fight was Kingsley - and one person would have
little effect on LV and the DEs. Note that when Harry's life was at
risk at Hogwarts, Lupin, Tonks and the Weasleys did show up.
