The 911 Plane hit Wedge One of the Pentagon is that area associated with a particular branch of the Military ?

The U.S. Forces are typically divided into five Branches (Army Navy, Marine, Coast Guard, Air Force). And there are 5 sides to the Pentagon. Someone once told me or I read somewhere that each side or corner is associated with a particular branch. Is this true. If so which branch took the hit so to speak.

I find it was the new Naval Command Center that took most of the hit. Although I see Army and civilians on the final roll.
I dedicate this question to Naval Lt Kevin Sheaffer- http://americanhistory.si.edu/september11/collection/supporting.asp?ID=646&z=0

I know that the Navy Command Center took a hit on NineEleven. There was other damage of course, but being ex-Navy I remember that part of the damage. I worked in that place for almost 4 years, but it was a long time before NineEleven! When I worked in the Pentagon it was on the 4th floor, D Ring. But that was a long, long time ago!

I seem to remember that there were areas that were mostly Army or mostly Navy or Air Force but that just made sense. I don't think it had anything to do with how many sides the Pentagon had. There are mixed commands too - all branches working together in one area.
