“An agreement made in another time that has no place in our military structure.”

Before you go around making a lot of derogatory remarks about the agreements and leaping into all sorts of false conclusions that make you comments look silly, you ought to make yourself acquainted with the full subject, including the fact that the Key West Agreement of 1948 was heavily modified by subsequent agreements in 1954, 1963, and so forth to the present day. That is why the Department of the Navy and the War Department were long ago subordinated to a new Department of Defense. The DoD has been responsible for the further evolution of the combined arms doctrine with the further development of joint services planning, operations, and support. Joint service has been a reality for some decades now and has proven its worth in multifold ways. See this article for just such an example:
