InformationEdit

The United States Army is a branch of the United States Armed Forces responsible for land-based military operations against enemy forces foreign, and domestic; The U.S. Army is the largest and oldest established branch of the U.S. military, and is one of seven uniformed military services.

HistoryEdit

The modern-day Army has its roots too the Continental Army, which was formed on June 14, 1775, before the establishment of the independent United States, to meet the demands of the American Revolutionary War. Congress created the official United States Army on June 14, 1784, after the end of the war to replace the disbanded Continental Army. The Army considers itself to be descended from the Continental Army and thus dates its inception from the origins of that force.
