Do you thin the Military category should be split up to branch-specific categories?

Everybody knows that the Military category is a just part of the bigger Politics & Government category. Do you think that Y!A should give the military it's own bigger category and then have smaller sections to cover each branch as well? I don't personally think it needs to be split up or that there's anything wrong with the way it's set up now, but it might help out to split up some of the branch-specific questions, such as something that only applies to the Navy or Army.

Update:

My bad, should have been think instead of thin.

    I think the subcategory for military is fine, without having to make it a stand alone category. There are a lot of military personnel who have been in other branches of service, i.e. the former Marine turned Army. I use this as an example because I am in aviation in the Army, and I have seen a lot of pilots who were former Marines and now they are Army Aviators. I think keeping them together makes it easier for those who view this site to ask or answer questions without having to go back and forth between the different branches.
