Description
The 234th anniversary of the U.S. Army recognizes the moment, on June 14, 1775, that the Continental Congress created the most powerful fighting force in the world. At the core of the largest branch of the U.S. military is the credo that commands “This We’ll Defend.” The 300,000 dedicated soldiers, who carry this credo with them whatever the mission, proudly defend freedom and uphold liberty wherever they stand.
