THE ARMY MISSION
1-1. The mission of the United States Army is to protect and defend the
Constitution of the United States of America. The Army does this by
deterring war and, when deterrence fails, by achieving quick, decisive victory
- on and off the battlefield – anywhere in the world and under virtually any
conditions as part of a joint team. It does this by fulfilling its directed
function of organizing, equipping, and training ready forces. The US national
military strategy relies on an ability to rapidly deploy, employ, and sustain a
joint force anywhere on the globe. This means that the conditions of Army
operations can range from peace operations to high intensity conflict. These
operations can occur in nuclear, biological, and chemical (NBC)
environments, in all types of terrain, weather, and climate.
