The Continental Army was created on 14 June 1775 by the ContinentalCongress as a unified army for the colonies to fight Great Britain, with

George Washington appointed as its commander.

The United States Army (USA) is the largest branch of the United States Armed Forces that performs land-based military operations. It is also the largest overall and oldest established branch of the U.S. military, and is one of seven U.S. uniformed services. The modern army has its roots in the Continental Army which was formed on 14 June 1775, to meet the demands of the American Revolutionary War before the establishment of the United States. The Congress of the Confederation officially created the United States Army on 3 June 1784 after the end of the Revolutionary War to replace the disbanded Continental Army. The army considers itself to be descended from the Continental Army and thus dates its inception from the origins of that force

Anyone in the army can volunteer to participate in Ranger School. Only few will succeed and become a Ranger.
