The Navy. I would consider the Air Force if the US Navy weren't a better air force than most countries' actual air forces in addition to everything else it does.

I'm going to guess Clarence is quite familiar with The Influence of Sea Power upon History? I had to read it for a history course a few years back. Very interesting book; argues its case well and holds up even now.
