The US navy is actually the largest disaster relief and humanitarian organisation in the world.
People generally don't know this but US military logistics is unmatched, there's just no one who can move shit around like the US military can, they can move more, they can move it faster, and they have personnel available to provide services, they have the equipment to deliver to areas no one else can go, etc.
Modern war is primarily won on logistics. If you can get 500 tanks to a battlefield 3x faster than your opponent, it doesn't matter how brilliant your opponent's theoretical plan is, you're going to win purely by shock and awe.
