Which air force group did the most missions and how many did they do?

I would have to say it was the United States Army Air Force and the United States Naval air force that flew the most missions. Here is my reasoning. The US was not only flying missions in Europe they were also flying missions in the Pacific theater. So they would add all up all those missions and I can be fairly certain they out numbered the Royal Army Air Force mission total. Now which particular group flew the most? I heard it was the 9th Air Force and one of the RAF groups but some of the 9th Air Force was sent to the Pacific so I still think they would win the title of flying the most missions.
