the Army strives to meet its purpose of 1) preserving the peace and security and providing for the defense of the United States, the Commonwealths and possessions and any areas occupied by the United States 2) supporting the national policies 3) implementing the national objectives and 4) overcoming any nations responsible for aggressive acts that imperil the peace and security of the United States.
