Excerpt from Remarks on the Army Regulations and Executive Regulations in General The words regulate and regulation are used in several places in the Constitution of the United States. Thus, Congress has power to "regulate" commerce, to "regulate" the value of money, to make rules for the government and "regulation" of the land and naval forces, to make "regulations" with regard to the elections of Senators and Representatives, to make "regulations" with reference to the jurisdiction of the Supreme Court in certain cases, and to make needful rules and "regulations" respecting the territory and other property of the United States. In all these cases regulation is legislation. By virtue of its power to make rules and regulations for the land and naval forces, Congress covers a large field of legislation relating to the administration of military affairs. When this is done, there, however, remains a mass of matters appertaining to the military establishment, which it is necessary to "regulate" 'Legislation can not enter into all the details of this regulation, and, if it could, it would not be desirable, because a legislative code, controlling the whole subject of military administration, would not have the necessary elasticity.

American Military History provides the United States Army-in particular, its young officers, NCOs, and cadets-with a comprehensive but brief account of its past. The Center of Military History first published this work in 1956 as a textbook for senior ROTC courses. Since then it has gone through a number of updates and revisions, but the primary intent has remained the same. Support for military history education has always been a principal mission of the Center, and this new edition of an invaluable history furthers that purpose. The history of an active organization tends to expand rapidly as the organization grows larger and more complex. The period since the Vietnam War, at which point the most recent edition ended, has been a significant one for the Army, a busy period of expanding roles and missions and of fundamental organizational changes. In particular, the explosion of missions and deployments since 11 September 2001 has necessitated the creation of additional, open-ended chapters in the story of the U.S. Army in action. This first volume covers the Army's history from its birth in 1775 to the eve of World War I. By 1917, the United States was already a world power. The Army had sent large expeditionary forces beyond the American hemisphere, and at the beginning of the new century Secretary of War Elihu Root had proposed changes and reforms that within a generation would shape the Army of the future. But world war-global war-was still to come. The second volume of this new edition will take up that story and extend it into the twenty-first century and the early years of the war on terrorism and includes an analysis of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq up to January 2009.
