No. The US Government sent troops to stop what it imagined -- incorrectly -- was an uprising amongst the Latter-day Saints settling the territory of Deseret. The so-called Mormon War was quite short-lived, but put the Mormons, who had already been driven by mob violence from one location to another on high alert, for fear they were once again being attacked. The invading troops were dissuaded, and the attack rather fizzled out.
