Don't forget to have one in honor of the US Navy! Okay, the US Army and USMC, too. But not the USAF, they didn't exist in WWII!

They did exist, as the U.S. Army Air Corps! Hooah! Later they would leave to form their own branch and become a bunch of desk jockeys.

Well, yeah, but they existed as part of the US ARMY. But if you want to have a two drinks for the US Army and the US Army precursor to the US Air Force, go right ahead.

Don't drink to the US Army Air Corps, though, because they didn't exist. By 1941, this organization was known as the US Army Air Forces (USAAF).

PS:
Navy 42
Army 23

Nice quote, and I believe it, historically--but WTF with your link? A *bomber* firing *cruise* missiles? We could do that just as easily from a sub.

Go Army! Yes, there actually is a football team worse than Pitt out there. I believe Pitt plays Navy next year, by the way.
