The US Army Corps of Engineers traces its history back to the Revolutionary War, when the fledgling Continental Army developed the required military engineering capabilities under the tutelage of a Polish engineer, Thaddeus Kosciusko. Some of todays Engineer Battalions pre-date the Civil War. Military engineering in the US Army has embraced a remarkable range of activities, from combat support activities such as mine clearance and bridging, to heavy construction, to topographical services and management of civil engineering infrastructure.
