Army
Definition:
"The United States Army is the branch of
the
United States Armed Forces
responsible for
land-based military operations. It
is the largest and oldest established
branch of the U.S. military and is one
of seven
uniformed services. The modern Army
has its roots in the
Continental Army which was formed on
June 14, 1775, before the establishment
of the United States, to meet the
demands of the
American Revolutionary War.
Congress created the 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." Source:
