Good morning. 🌻🌻🌻

14 June 2025

Today marks the 250th anniversary of the establishment of the United States Army—Hooah! On June 14, 1775, the Continental Congress voted to create a unified force to fight in the American Revolutionary War, forming what was initially called the Continental Army. Since then, the Army has played a pivotal role in shaping the nation’s history and defending its freedoms.

In case you’re wondering about "Hooah," it’s a slang term used by soldiers to mean anything and everything except "no." Depending on the situation, it can mean "Good morning," "You've got to be kidding," "Message received," "Roger," "Thank you," "Great," "Welcome," "Amen," and much more. It embodies the spirit of enthusiasm, determination, and unity that defines the Army.

"Hooah is the heartbeat of the Army, a single word that carries the weight of duty and honor." — General Mark Milley

@[email protected] I can only imagine how it felt to be one of those honorable men and women parading in front of a draft-dodging traitor.
