	Military history of the United States - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As of 2006, the U.S. military consisted of an army, navy, air force and marine corps under the command of the United States Department of Defense.
		In the early years of the British colonization of North America, military action in the colonies that would become United States were the result of conflicts with Native Americans, such as in the Pequot War of 1637 and King Philip's War in 1675.
		In the United States, the conflict was termed a police action under the aegis of the United Nations rather than a war, largely in order to remove the necessity of a Congressional declaration of war.

	ENVIRONMENTAL REQUIREMENTS AND CONSEQUENCES RELATED TO THE CLOSING OF UNITED STATES MILITARY BASES IN EUROPE
		This paper discusses United States, foreign and international laws and legal forums applicable to environmental cleanup of United States military installations slated for closure in Europe.
		The number of active duty U.S. military personnel in Europe dropped from approximately 240,000 in the early 1990's to 110,000 in 1998, and U.S. military installations in Germany decreased from 45 in 1990 to 22 in 1996.
		It would seem that a foreign state's landownership of a NATO installation may qualify as an Act of State and make this doctrine an attractive defense for the foreign state in such a case.
