He basically just flipped the order of the undersecretaries in relation to the branch specific secretaries. The most logical solution that pops out
to me would be that he achieved a line that goes pretty deep before you get to a branch specific secretary, thereby eliminating the potential of a
single branch to appear "superior" or "better" than the other. I would also think that the undersecretaries not assigned to a specific branch
might have a better overview of the departments goals as a whole, vs someone who has focused on just the Navy or the Army's involvment and goals.
