U.S. Military
The United States Army is the land warfare service branch of the United States Armed Forces. It is designated as the Army of the United States of America in the U.S. Constitution.
The modern U.S. Army has its roots in the Continental Army which was formed to fight in the American Revolutionary War against the British Army. After the war, the newly formed nation created the United States Army on 3 June 1784.
In 1941 A.D. Japanese warplanes attacked the U.S. fleet at Pearl Harbor, Oahu, Hawaii. The U.S. declared war on Japan; Germany declared war on U.S., which thereafter intervened on a massive scale in World War II.
At the end of 1941 the U.S. Military began Project: Rebirth which created the Super-Soldier Serum that turned Steve Rogers into Captain America. Throughout the war, Cap and his partner Bucky Barnes fought alongside infantry and with a group of heroes known as the Invaders. In 1943, the U.S. Government forcibly recruited 300 African-American soldiers to serve as test subjects to recreate the Super Soldier Serum; however, only one man survived the gruesome process: Isaiah Bradley.
In 1945, the closing months of World War II, Captain America and Bucky were both presumed dead in an explosion. Later in 1945, the U.S. dropped two atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki which led to Japan's surrender.
The U.S. army has experimented with the Gamma Bomb, which resulted in Bruce Banner becoming the Hulk.
