The United States Army was created on June 14, 1775. The first version of the U.S. Army consisted of volunteer soldiers with roots in the Continental Army. This army was used to fight the Revolutionary War. Today, the U.S. Army is the largest branch of the U.S. military.

On June 15, 1775, the day after the army was created, George Washington was named its leader. He served as general and commander-in-chief with the mission to fight against enemy forces in large formations using small ambush tactics. In 1802, the first U.S. military academy was established in West Point, New York.
