Explanation:
Washington and the first congress had to make numerous decisions about the new government, since there was no precedent--such as how to establish a cabinet, how the present would be greeted, whether the president would be present during sessions of congress, etc,
Basically, before 1973, the president had more power over the military and had more freedom to command the military as the president wished.
