I disagree. The lessons of World War II, which many are forgetting, demonstrate precisely why an independent Air Force is essential to this country’s defense. Talk of folding it back into the Army is just stupid.

Please provide examples- I am interested... I recall the Army in WW2 did not use the b-25 correctly in Africa and Europe and was ready to scrape the plane. Dolittle had to retrain the Army how to use the plane...
