Military Rings
The United States military is comprised of four main armed forces: the United States Army, the United States Air Force, the United States Navy and the United States Marine Corps, often just called ‘the Marines.”
The most powerful armed forces in the western hemisphere, the United States military features highly-trained soldiers and sailors using world-class modern technology to defend the United States of America and to protect its interests abroad.
Unlike the old days when hand-to-hand combat was the norm, war today is most often fought from a distance. Navy ships are able to accurately fire missiles at targets that are hundreds of miles away.
Army and Marine Corps artillery units can shell targets that are much further away than ever before.
And Army, Air Force and Marine Corps jets can pursue and attack enemy airplanes high in the skies.
But the United States military is more than capable of fighting any type of battle, whether from far away or up close and personal.
Although available technology and training methods are radically different than in the past, the US military’s role has hardly changed at all: the defense of US territory and national interests and the protection of more vulnerable countries around the world play a very large part in the role of the United States Military.
Military Rings - Deployment Rings
The US military takes its duties very seriously and reacts to crises very quickly.
When Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990, the US military came to that country’s defense, driving the Iraqi forces out of Kuwait after only five days.
Following the September 11th attacks on New York City and the Pentagon, the US military immediately assumed the role of protecting the world from terrorism. Years later, the US military is searching for, and disrupting the activities of, some of the world’s most feared terrorists in Afghanistan and Iraq.

The four main branches of the United States military are as follows:
The United States Army Military Rings
The US Army is the largest and oldest branch of the United States armed forces and is responsible for land-based military operations.
Its various units, brigades and divisions are based on installations throughout the United States as well as Germany, South Korea, Iraq, Afghanistan and many other locations throughout the world.
Army installations are like self-sufficient towns, providing housing, shopping, recreation, schools and other facilities for troops and their families.
They typically house at least some active units that are ready to deploy on very short notice.
The United States Navy - Custom Military Rings
The US Navy is also an old branch of the United States military, almost as old as the Army.
And it’s a proud branch, too: after the fall of the Soviet Union and the dismemberment of the
Soviet navy, the United States became the world’s undisputed naval superpower.
Navy ships today spend an enormous amount of time patrolling the world’s oceans and seas, along with transporting troops from the US mainland to deployment areas. Custom design your navy rings here.
The United States Marine Corps Military Rings
The US Marine Corps is an elite branch of the US military, organized in 1775, about the same time as the Army and the Navy.
Its soldiers work closely with the US Navy and have served in every major conflict the United States has been involved in since it was formed.
The Marine Corps is the smallest of the United States armed forces and its high recruitment standards make it a selective, elite group of soldiers.
The United States Air Force Rings
The US Air Force is the youngest branch of the United States military, but its highly trained personnel and ultra-modern, sophisticated equipment are essential in fighting wars from the air.
The Air Force also provides early and immediate airborne defense of the United States’ borders.
