This commemorative Forever stamp celebrates the 250th anniversary of the United States Army, founded on June 14, 1775 by the Second Continental Congress. Born out of the Revolutionary War, the Army has stood as the backbone of America’s defense, protecting the nation’s freedom and serving with loyalty and duty across centuries.

The design highlights the Army’s emblem on a clean white background, with the inscriptions “250 YEARS OF SERVICE,” “SINCE 1775,” and “FOREVER/USA.” Created by USPS art director Antonio Alcalá, the stamp pays tribute to the Army’s enduring values of honor, discipline, and resilience.

As a Forever stamp, it will always be equal in value to the current First-Class Mail 1-ounce rate—both functional for everyday use and meaningful for collectors.
