Its always fascinated me how the US Army is involved in civilian engineering projects. I remember when I was in DC back in 2012 after the earthquake damaged the Washington needle, the US Army engineers had all their branding up around the repair site. Or when I was just outside of Seattle, the engineers were managing forest land and putting a new road in.
In the UK I don't think the REME or Royal Corps of Engineers have ever done or managed civilian projects.
Anyone able to explain why, is it a federal government thing?
