From liberating Rome in World War II to deploying thousands of medical personnel during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Fifth Army has always answered the nation's call. Activated in 1943, the Fifth Army became the first American field army to invade mainland Europe. Over the decades, their mission evolved. In 2004, the command shifted its focus to Homeland Defense and Defense Support of Civil Authorities, eventually redesignating as U.S. Army North. Through wars, hurricanes, and national crises, they have lived up to their motto: "Strength of the Nation." Tomorrow, we honor over eight decades of historic service. #USNORTHCOM #ARNORTH #FifthArmy #StrengthOfTheNation #MilitaryHistory @USArmyNorth @USArmyWHC @USArmy @DeptofWar

MAFFS Activated for Wildfire Response ✈️🔥 Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System (MAFFS) aircraft have been activated to support federal and state wildfire suppression efforts in California. Two MAFFS-equipped C-130s from the 146th Airlift Wing (@146AirliftWing ) mobilized to Santa Maria, with our local 302nd Airlift Wing (@302AirliftWing) arriving to take over operations out of San Bernardino.

Eyes on the skies. 🚁🗽 #USNORTHCOM’s Counter-UAS Flyaway Kit team was part of the security effort in International Naval Review 250 - monitoring drone activity and coordinating with the Emergency Operations Center for a safe, secure event. Protecting our airspace and supporting local authorities is a vital part of our mission.     INR250 is a once-in-a-generation multinational maritime event commemorating 250 years of the United States Navy, Marine Corps, and the United States of America. #WeHaveTheWatch #HomelandDefense @DeptOfWar #INR250 @UsNavy

“The High North is critical to the homeland defense mission. We must maintain domain awareness, unyielding presence, and strong partnerships across the Arctic to deter aggression. Our discussions in Alaska reinforce the commands’ commitment to maintaining a secure, stable, and ready Arctic in an era of strategic competition." - Gen. Greg Guillot, commander, North American Aerospace Defense Command and U.S. Northern Command Last week, Gen. Guillot participated in the NORAD and #USNORTHCOM Commander’s Conference, at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson Alaska, June 25, 2026. The conference brought together commands at all levels, as well as key partners from the U.S. Coast Guard, Space and Missile Defense Command and the Canadian Joint Operations Command, to gain a clear understanding of NORAD and NORTHCOM’s strategy, integration, processes and plans for the homeland defense mission. #WeHaveTheWatch
