It was former Commander in Chief George Washington who first said: “Without a decisive naval force we can do nothing definitive.” The US Navy has since then been completely run by and is a major branch of the US government as part of the Department of Defense, and it’s headquartered in The Pentagon in Washington D.C. It’s a huge operation with over 333,542 personnel, 286 ships, more than 3,700 pieces of aircraft, 11 aircraft carriers, 9 amphibious assault ships, 12 dock landing ships, 22 cruisers, 59 destroyers, 30 frigates and 75 submarines.
