In addition to traditional peacekeeping to monitor cease-fires and truces, the Army is now involved in activities such as peace enforcement and the reconstruction of failed states.

The second was at the level of military strategy and operations, focusing on the concerns of regional combatant commands and U.S. components in multinational forces.
