"Regular Army" & "National Army"[edit]

This article makes unsourced suggestions that the "Regular Army" and "National Army" are legally distinct from the "United States Army". Farside268 (talk) 19:28, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

They are legally codified components of the United States Army as a whole. The National Army was the draft force during World War II. Page 21 of this document spells it out nicely [1]. -O.R.^Comms 22:01, 17 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

21st Century[edit]

Individual history’s of conflicts in different countries can be added. It doesn’t seem fair to reduce what the Army has done in the last 21 years to five paragraphs. CarricoHayden08 (talk) 17:50, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Citations[edit]

It seems to me that citations are missing throughout the article. The first citation doesn’t show up until the middle of the second paragraph. CarricoHayden08 (talk) 17:51, 19 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
