From the courageous and long-suffering infantry, which drove the Nazis from the conquered territories of Western Europe during World War II, to the overwhelming navy, which recovered from the attack on Pearl Harbor, becoming an invincible force. This, without forgetting the Air Force, whose pilots and planes destroyed the deadly German Luftwaffe and killed thousands of feared Japanese "zeroes".
