Army Day
What is it like to live in a world without weapons and armies? It is a question to ponder deeply. But we do not know exactly what it would be like, because we have never seen such a world in the history of life on earth. The conflict for dominance started the moment life began on earth. As life began to flourish and take on more complex forms, this conflict only became more chaotic.
As humans evolved, so did our means to create and resolve conflicts. Armies were thus created to create and end conflicts. Historians believe the Akkadian Empire was the first to have a standing army ready for battle. Over time, other empires also caught up. European and Asian empires raised huge armies to protect their land and invade others. Colonization and global explorations brought Europeans to the American land in search of wealth and glory. With them, they brought the idea of massive armies to the American continent as well.
The Second Continental Congress created the modern U.S. Army on June 14, 1775. It was during the American revolution. The Second World War showed weakness in the army’s preparedness during the initial stages of the war. Military Order of the World War under Colonel Thatcher Luquer established Army Day after Congress disallowed Defense Test Day. The date was initially on May 1 and then changed to April 6. The U.S. Army is a symbol of courage, valor, and sacrifice in the face of conflict. They fight valiantly to protect the nation’s pride throughout the world. Throughout history, they became instrumental in making the U.S. one of the most important countries in the world. Army Day was introduced to draw public attention toward national defense and to raise public appreciation for the activities of the army.
