Which military branch is stationed in Annapolis?

Hi there, I'm considering pursuing a military career and I'm particularly interested in being stationed in Annapolis due its history and proximity to DC. Does anyone know which military branch is based in Annapolis?

The United States Naval Academy, which is affiliated with the U.S. Navy, is based in Annapolis, Maryland. This prestigious federal service academy prepares officers for both the U.S. Navy and Marine Corps. Through an intensive four-year program, students, often called midshipmen, are immersed in a combination of rigorous academic, military, and physical training. As graduates, they are commissioned as officers in either the U.S. Navy or Marine Corps.

Note that while attending the academy means you will be spending time in Annapolis, your assignment post-graduation could be anywhere across the globe as determined by need and service requirements. If you're looking to establish a longer-term residence in Annapolis, active duty assignments specific to that location might be more limited and highly competitive due to the desirable location.

Pursuing a military career is a significant decision with many factors to consider, so take the time to thoroughly evaluate your options and discuss with mentors, advisors, or officers, as well as taking advantage of recruiting resources available. This could help provide a complete picture of what life in each branch, and in different assignments, will realistically look like.
