    State and city officials, senior military leaders, and civilian partners helped the U.S. Army celebrate its 251st birthday June 14 with the unveiling of the service’s birthplace historic marker here. This new marker, located near the intersection of Chestnut and South 6th Streets, recognizes Philadelphia’s legacy as the birthplace of the U.S. Army, which was established on June 14, 1775.
