because that is the way it is presently, effectively structured
if it's not broken, don't break it
I put "other" because it would be idiotic to put everyone in the same catagory. Each branch has different approaches to the art of warfare. Which is the main reason to seperate them.
Keeping them seperated also makes communication far easier.
I don't like the idea of merging all of the branches together. But since that's what the question is I voted Army. The Army has planes, ships, Special Forces, etc etc. They'd probably be the best in absorbing the other branches. I don't think it's a good idea though. But if they were to merge the branches Boot Camp should be to the Marine Corps' standards.
I do however think the Air Force should be given back to the Army.
The way I see it....
The AF should go back to the Army.
The Marine Corps should be a part of the Navy.
The Coast Guard should also be a part of the Navy.
The Corps is under the Department of the Navy. That's why the Corps doesn't have it's own Chaplains, Corpsmen, and a few other jobs. They come from the Navy. The Coast Guard in times of war can be put under Department of the Navy control.

I think the US would be better served by consolidating its law-enforcement services. Do you really need Police departments, Sheriffs departments, Marshalls, State Troopers, DEA, ATF, FBI and Lord knows what else?
The Army because you can't win a war without boots on the ground.
I got into an argument with a co-worker about this topic. He seems to think that the consolidation of branches would make for a smoother deployment when necessary, communication would be virtually seamless, etc... I disagreed and the 'chat' got a little heated. I didn't (and still don't) see the point in consolidation, but thought maybe someone here could clue me into something that maybe I was missing when I was 'talking' to this guy.
Yes, Im aware... but what I mean is... It should be absorbed by the Navy entirely.
Same with the Coast Guard.
Our Military Branch Choices should be Army...or Navy?
