On June 14th, 238 Years Ago, the Continental Army was born. Most of the Continental Army was disbanded in 1783 after the Treaty of Paris ended the war. The 1st and 2nd Regiments went on to form the nucleus of the Legion of the United States in 1792 under General Anthony Wayne. This became the foundation of the United States Army in 1796. So Happy Birthday, to the United States Army. A rag tag bunch of colonials that put down the most powerful empire and ended up with the birth of a Nation. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/b/b8/Surrender_of_Lord_Cornwallis.jpg/800px-Surrender_of_Lord_Cornwallis.jpg
