Why at the end of Army Recruitment Videos does it say "Paid for the the US Army"? [View All]

At the end of Army and other military recruitment advertisements they have listed as their sponsor: "Paid for by the US Army". Armies of yesteryear used to seize everything from their vanquished enemies, their gold, their possessions and their women. Those are the days when the armies actually made money. But our army doesn't make money, they just spend it. They get it from us, the taxpayers. So why aren't taxpayers getting the credit for the ads? We paid for them.

Note: This isn't an 'I support the troops' moment because it has nothing to do with how you feel about the military. It has everything to do with the way the US Army is funded.

I called the US Army several times but I have yet to receive an answer to my valid question. I know it doesn't matter who gets credit for the ads, but if it says "paid for by the US Army", then the army needs to start invading tiny countries with lots of wealth and taking their money. They could start with Switzerland and get trillions in cash and gold. We don't need a reason to go to war anymore. Switzerland poses more than ten times the threat to the US than Iraq did.

Am I in the 'Army of One' on this issue?

BTW: I am not against the US Army. I am an Army veteran.
