For those who have ever wanted a clearer picture of the true reach of the United States Army - through history and presently

Those who avoided making such a kind of research that were quite complicated and extensive to find the answer, Independent reporters simplified things. Using the data collected by the geography professor and Native Studies from Evergreen State College in Washington, the team created an interactive map of US military actions outside its own borders from Argentina in 1890 to Syria in 2014.

In order to put all these historical events in the context of the use of the Ministry of Defense data (DOD), the team also compiled a map for the display of all countries where nearly 200,000 active members of the US military are currently located.
