The <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army" title="United States Army">army</a>, however, did not see combat.

The answer is perhaps and to a degree. Bayard wrote him afterward, "Your views in relation to the election, differed very little from my own, but I was obliged to yield to a torrent [of anti-Jefferson sentiment] which I perceived might be diverted, but could not be opposed."
