history of the united states military

The US military formed on june 14th, 1775, during the american revolution. It was first called the continental army. George Washington was the first president of the United states but also was the first president to use our military.  The US developed a more formal kind of military in 1846 during the Mexican American war. The war started when a detachment of U.S. troops clashed with Mexican forces near the Rio Grande.  

The next time the U.S.army is used in major action was World War 1. This war brought many improvements in combat and a new kind of strength to the U.S. Their navy was stronger than ever and the U.S. had its first tank corps giving them another advantage on the battlefield. After WW1 the U.S. would slowly grow to be the world superpower. World War 2 would bring the U.S. army back out. After Japan launched their attack on pearl harbor the U.S. would officially join the war effort. WW2 would bring many improvements to the United states army and navy.  This would rang from weapons, vehicles, training to technology and science. 

    Couple years later the United States went to war with afghanistan. The U.S would show how strong they are by using air strikes and vast improvements to there strategies and  weapons.

  • I didn't really know that much about the history of the US army, but I assumed it was similar to most other armies. I think this is good information, but I don't really know how I would use it so it's probably not very useful. I don't know anything else about it.

  • I didnt know about any history of the US army. I knew when it was used, but not when it was actually established. I think this information is useful and is important to know since we live in the US. I dont know much about our army.

  • I knew about the history of the Army. I have been interested in joining the millitary for a very long time. I have always loved the idea of helping protect my country.
