in plain englishAI-generated · not legal advice

The Department of the Navy is organized separately, under the Secretary of the Navy. It answers to the Secretary of Defense, who controls it.

This section sets up how the Department of the Navy fits into the government. The Department of the Navy has its own separate organization, led by the Secretary of the Navy. But it isn't fully independent — it operates under the authority, direction, and control of the Secretary of Defense. That means the Secretary of Defense has the final say over how the Navy Department operates.
