An outpouring of feminist writings accompanied the growth of radical social and religious movements in Britain and Europe in the 1840s. Catherine Barmby s Demand for the Emancipation of Woman, Politically and Socially (1843) led the way.
Separated into five service branches, the United States armed forces is one of the worldâs largest militaries. Consisting mainly of volunteer recruits, the U.S. military is steeped in history and tradition. The five branches of the armed forces include the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force and Coast Guard.
At present, all Military branches have about the same function and some can be used interchangeably. You may see a Marine element replacing an Army unit. You may see Air Force or even Navy personnel supporting Army troops. The strict division of labor has changed within the forces as the modern battlefield has changed.
