It’s like I went back in time. I swear 5 or 6 years ago there was an article very similar talking about disbanding the Air Force and rolling it into Navy.

Not to take sides between the Army & Air Force; but from a Constitutional stand-point, it would be far better to place the Air Force as a semi-independent branch under the Navy. That is because of the language in Article I, Section 8,. which limits Army funding to a period of two years at a time.

Because of the time frame involved in provisioning a Navy--and since World War I an Air Force--there is no time limitation on Naval appropriations.
