- Today in military history, 1779, Congress establishes

the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.

The history of the corps can be traced back to 1775.

But it wasn't until 1779

that Congress officially created the Army Corps of Engineers

to help design and build facilities

for the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War.

The Army engineers, consisting of civilian workers,

Continental soldiers, and French officers were instrumental

in some of the most hard-fought battles of the war

including Bunker Hill, Saratoga, and Yorktown.

The Army Corps of Engineers builds and maintains

military facilities, develops technology for war fighters,

dredges America's waterways, develops hurricane and storm

damage reduction infrastructure, and cleans sites

contaminated with hazardous, toxic, or radioactive waste.

Today, approximately 37,000 dedicated civilians and soldiers

serve in the corps, delivering engineering services

to more than 130 countries worldwide.

S. Korea to take U.S. 'safeguards' dispute to WTO - Duration: 0:51.

Earlier this year, the United States imposed so-called safeguard duties on imported Korean

washing machines and solar panels.

The deadline has passed for the U.S. to change the safeguards, so now Korea is going to take

the issue to the WTO for arbitration.

The washing machine duties were signed by President Trump in January, and since then

Seoul has asked Washington to retract them or provide compensation for the damage done

to Korean industries, arguing that the measures go against WTO regulations and are excessive.

But a Korean trade ministry official said Sunday that for all practical purposes, talks

on the issue are over.

The trade ministry has said several times that if the WTO rules in Korea's favor and

the U.S. does not respect the ruling, then it will impose retaliatory measures on American

goods.
