Best Answer

The US did not have a "Department of Defense" during the Great Depression.

The US Army was in the "War Department" and the US Navy and Marines were in the "Department of the Navy". These two departments were continually in conflict over resources, budget allocations, and weapons development.

A single "Department of Defense" was not created until 1947, when the US Air Force was officially separated from the US Army.
