The Air Force has always reported to SecAF. That's why there is a SecAF. Until 1947 there was no US Air Force, just air components of the Army and Navy.

A vanity project. It easily could have been an AF Major Air Command and evolved as the AF did within the Army until need and technology required a separate branch.
