Happy Birthday to the US Army!

Click for larger version

On this day in 1775, the US Army was founded.


"Since its birth on 14 June 1775-over a year before the Declaration of Independence-the United States Army has played a vital role in the growth and development of our nation. Soldiers have fought more than 10 wars, from the American Revolution through the Cold War, the Gulf War, to the current War on Terrorism. This 231st Birthday is a recognition of The Army’s history, traditions, and service to the Nation, a Call To Duty, 231 Years of Service to Our Nation."



Heroes then, and Heroes now. Thank you to all who have served, all who are currently serving, and all who will serve in the United States Army.
