The United States Air Force gained its independence on September 18, 1947, when it was established as a separate branch of the U.S. Armed Forces. This reorganization was part of the National Security Act of 1947, which also created the National Military Establishment, later known as the Department of Defense. Prior to this, the Air Force had been part of the Army, specifically as the Army Air Forces during World War II.
