1947:
Army: "Dude, we're gonna have to cut way back on flying stuff. The tanks are cooler ya know.
Army Air Force: Screw that dude! Airplanes are the Shizz!
Army: Nuh UH!
Army Air Force: Uh HUH!
Truman: Guise, guise! Listen, you can coexist, here I'll create the USAF. AAF, you get the planes, nukes and SAC. Army, you get tanks, that whirlygig thing that Sikorsky and Crazy ole Hughes are trying to build... maybe some short range nukes.
Army: But.. The F**K!
USAF: :P
And thus, the story of the birth of the USAF.
