US Navy Aircraft Carriers normally operated US Navy aircraft flown by US Navy pilots; however sometimes during WW2 these aircraft carriers had US Army Air Force or US Marine Corps aircraft on-board to be flown-off by Army or Marine pilots. This was for ferrying operations. These aircraft would take off from the carriers but land on an airfield. Army pilots were not trained to land on carriers, neither were the Army aircraft equipped for carrier landings. US Marine pilots & Marine aircraft could operate from carriers if necessary, until they could be established at an airfield.
The Navy has always flown its own aircraft on aircraft carriers, since the first carrier was commissioned March 20th, 1922. There have been other types of aircraft flown on/off carriers by the army, but none of them were ever considered to be stationed on a carrier.
interesting question. they fall under the navy, not the airforce.

Three reasons: 1. To keep warm - the wind whipping around the head and shoulders worked its way under the leather flying jacket. 2. To prevent the leather flying jacket from chafing the neck. 3. To wipe engine grease from the goggles.

Seventeen carriers (CV) were delivered to the US Navy between the attack on the Fleet at Pearl Harbor and VJ-Day. More than a dozen more were under construction, but only a few were delivered. Most were produced by Newport News Shipbuilders and Bethlhem Steel.

On the contrary, American pilots flew planes like the F2A Buffalo under the Finnish flag all through the Second World War. Germany's only two Allies were Italy, and Japan.
