Branch of Service

A branch of service refers to the specific division within a country's military, each with its own role, organization, and responsibilities. The main branches of the U.S. military are the Army (ground combat and operations), Navy (sea-based operations), Air Force (air and space dominance), Marine Corps (ship-to-shore combat and expeditionary warfare), Coast Guard (maritime safety and security), and Space Force (space operations). Each branch specializes in certain types of military activity, working together to protect national security. Joining a branch allows individuals to serve in different capacities, skills, and environments based on their interests and the nation's needs.
