As I understand, it only applies to the Army and the Air Force. How has the U.S. been able to deploy fighter jets with respect to potential or actual airline terrorism (e.g. 911)? I assume they are/were authorized to use force. Are those jets piloted by Naval or Marine aviators? Or National Guard?

the planes flying into US airspace or other perceived intent to attack the US can be called an act of war therefore US military may respond and will respond -
Other than that, the US military may not enforce or participate in domestic law within the US borders.
A caravan of shoeless and desperate women and children seeking asylum from Honduras marching toward the US border is not an attack on US, nor is it an invasion.

Just wondering about the restrictions of the Act. It does seem that it only covers the Army and Air Force. Supposedly the Navy has a separate self-imposed regulation. Nothing about the Marines though.
