Readers are prompted to gauge their understanding as they draw conclusions from the leveled text. The U.S. Navy has a long history of defending the nation from threats at sea. The Navy’s success in World War II altered the course of history in favor of the United States.
The U.S. Navy is the nation’s combat and security force of the high seas. It might be hard to tell by just looking around, but we live in a world of water. In fact, oceans cover 70 percent of planet Earth’s surface, leaving about seven billion human beings to live on dry land.
The United States is a superpower with the world’s largest military force. The Navy, along with the Army, Air Force, and Marines, all play roles in defending the country against forces that would aim to harm the nation, its people, or its resources.
