.mil is the US military I believe. It is a valid top-level domain.

I was going to suggest military!

well i assumed millitary but i didnt think it was a valid TLD because the army use .gov so why bother?

I thought they used .mod ? i.e. www.army.mod.uk

 

[hmallett]

The internet (originally ARPANET) was designed initially for military use, so it's not surprising that they have their own TLD.

JonnyBoy - I'm just guessing here, and I may be completely wrong, but I think www.army.gov.uk is the UK army, rather than the US army like I said in my post.

Here's prrof - http://www.army.mil

.GOV = American Government

.MIL = American Military

.ORG = Global Organisations ie Non-for profit

.AC = Academia (Schools, Uni's Colleges)

The UK Domains would be:

.gov.uk = British Government
.org.uk = British Non profit organisations
.ac.uk = British Schools
.mod.uk = British Military

Of these 'TLDs' are controlled by a governing body called Nominet. You will find their site at www.nic.uk
Nominet control the UK TLD and therefore any domain with a UK TLD will be stored in their database and has been registered through them.
Before the term TLD appeared, the .xx.uk (xx) was infact the domain, and anything such as bbc.co.uk was infact a subdomain of the domain co.uk
As this caused confusion and the Internet bubble 'burst' this was changed to TLD because many people attempted to register their own TLD as it were
