Eager to maintain a hard-fought momentum to drive the Germans out of France, on 10 October 1918, General John J. "Black Jack" Pershing, Commander of the American Expeditionary Forces (AEF), selected Lieutenant General Robert L. Bullard to command the newly activated Second Army, AEF. Bullard, a Spanish–American War veteran, earned Pershing's confidence and reputation as an aggressive commander, after leading the 1st Infantry Division during the battle of Cantigny. At Cantigny, Bullard delivered the first American victory of the war. Bullard's orders for Second Army were to hold the line on a portion of the St. Mihiel sector along the Lorraine front. In November, General Pershing ordered Second Army to advance toward Metz. Bullard subsequently launched rigorous attacks against the Germans on 10 November. The <a href="/wiki/7th_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="7th Infantry Division (United States)">7th</a>, <a href="/wiki/28th_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="28th Infantry Division (United States)">28th</a>, <a href="/wiki/33rd_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="33rd Infantry Division (United States)">33rd</a>, and <a href="/wiki/92nd_Infantry_Division_(United_States)" title="92nd Infantry Division (United States)">92nd</a> divisions, then on the Second Army front, began the attacks. Encountering stubborn resistance, Second Army made a considerable advance, recovering a total of approximately 25 square miles of French territory before the armistice terminated hostilities on 11 November. During its first month of combat operations, 102 soldiers serving under Second Army earned the Distinguished Service Cross. After the armistice, Second Army occupied an area in Belgium and Luxembourg, remaining there until the end of March 1919, and demobilized in France on 15 April 1919. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Interwar_period">Interwar period</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Second_United_States_Army&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Interwar period"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading4"><h4 id="Second_Army_(I)"><span id="Second_Army_.28I.29"></span>Second Army (I)</h4><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Second_United_States_Army&action=edit&section=4" title="Edit section: Second Army (I)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Second Army was authorized by the <a href="/wiki/National_Defense_Act_of_1920" title="National Defense Act of 1920">National Defense Act of 1920</a> and was to be primarily composed of Regular Army and National Guard units from the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth <a href="/wiki/Corps_Area" class="mw-redirect" title="Corps Area">Corps Areas</a>.

The headquarters was organized 22 August 1932 at Chicago, while the Headquarters Company was organized 26 February 1935 at Chicago. Due to the abandonment in 1933 of the “Six Army” plan in favor of the “Four Army” plan, the Second Army area was restructured to include only the Fifth and Sixth Corps Areas. The Fourth Corps Area was transferred to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army_Central" title="United States Army Central">Third Army</a>. The Second Army's mission was to develop defense and operational plans for contingencies near the <a href="/wiki/Great_Lakes" title="Great Lakes">Great Lakes</a> and the north-central United States, review the mobilization plans of the Fifth and Sixth Corps Areas, and oversee the training of units in the Army area. As part of the responsibility to oversee training, the Second Army staff planned, conducted, and/or participated in three major maneuvers between 1936 and 1941. </p><p>The August 1936 maneuvers were actually two separate exercises and were held at <a href="/wiki/Fort_Knox" title="Fort Knox">Fort Knox</a>, <a href="/wiki/Kentucky" title="Kentucky">Kentucky</a>, for the Fifth Corps Area troops, and at <a href="/wiki/Fort_Custer_Training_Center" title="Fort Custer Training Center">Camp Custer</a>-<a href="/wiki/Allegan,_Michigan" title="Allegan, Michigan">Allegan, Michigan</a>, for the Sixth Corps Area troops. The maneuvers, though in separate locations, were tied together by a common scenario and included significant numbers of <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army_Air_Corps" title="United States Army Air Corps">United States Army Air Corps</a> and mechanized units. The next Second Army maneuver was also a split exercise, this time under the command of Lieutenant General <a href="/wiki/Stanley_H._Ford" title="Stanley H. Ford">Stanley H. Ford</a>.

The primary focus of this exercise was to train the army and corps staffs, all of which had been provisionally organized with Reserve and Regular officers and men from corps area staffs. Following the 1940 maneuver, the Second Army order of battle was changed to reflect the assignment of the <a href="/wiki/VII_Corps_(United_States)" title="VII Corps (United States)">VII Corps</a> to the troop list, and the loss of the <a href="/wiki/V_Corps_(United_States)" title="V Corps (United States)">V</a> and <a href="/wiki/VI_Corps_(United_States)" title="VI Corps (United States)">VI Corps</a> to the Third and <a href="/wiki/First_United_States_Army" class="mw-redirect" title="First United States Army">First Armies</a>, respectively.

The 1 October 2010, Headquarters Department of the Army (HQDA) General Orders No. 2010–26, which established Army Cyber Command, stated that it would "perpetuate the lineage and honors of the Second Army as specified by the United States Army Center of Military History." The Army Center of Military History agreed to use the naming convention established for geographic Army Service Component Commands, which would not have numbered Army designations; that is, the designation would be U.S. Army Cyber Command and not "Second Army"; only the lineage and honors of Second Army would be assigned to Army Cyber Command.
