I served with several branches while in the Army. --- Signal Corps, Intelligence, and Inspector General Corps.

When I was young sergeant, and found myself sharing alcoholic beverages with the "boys in blue" at a local NCO club... it was always comical when I would yank their chains by making the statement that the U.S. Air Force was actually that part of the U.S. Army Signal Corps that we decided we didn't want, and we got rid of it in 1947...

(All in jest of course... but actually true!).
