The United States Army celebrates its 250th birthday today - it is even a year older than our country! On June 14, 1775, the Continental Congress passed the resolution below, establishing the Continental Army.
From that day to this, patriotic men and women have protected our country and our rights - including our right to vote - and we honor each and every one of them on this 250th Birthday celebration. We are grateful that they still live the Army motto "This We'll Defend."
And ... the election integrity movement is dedicated to defend their right to access voting and have every military vote count.
June 14, 1775: Resolved, That six companies of expert riflemen, be immediately raised in Pennsylvania, two in Maryland, and two in Virginia; … [and] that each company, as soon as completed shall march and join the army near Boston, to be there employed as light infantry, under the command of the chief Officer in that army.
