		The first operation conducted by the fledgling US Army under the Constitution was not during wartime; it was an action to restore peace and stability to portions of Pennsylvania affected by the Whiskey Rebellion.

		While US military forces have often demonstrated a superb ability to identify objectives and accomplish missions, often they have done less well at capitalizing on resultant successes.[56] Success, be it in the form of military victory or mission accomplishment in a humanitarian operation, may prove transitory if not seized upon quickly.

		However, the ///real/// killer of US tanks during the invasion- especially on the Kanto Plain- was going to be a weapon that the Japanese had been unable to put to good use so far in the war: the Mark 97 20mm rapid-fire anti-tank rifle.
