The President of the United States is the Commander in Chief, who is responsible for all final decisions. The Secretary of the Department of Defense (DoD) has control over the military and each branch - except the Coast Guard, which is under the Dept. of Homeland Security.

You can also try home remedies for toothache relief too: 1  Avoidance - Do not chew on the side where the pain is located. 2  Saltwater - Mix a few teaspoons of table salt in a glass of warm water and swish it around in your mouth as long as you can stand it (but don't swallow it).
Try hard liquor. This time-worn home remedy eases the pain of a toothache, but it probably won't cure it. Still, it's a useful trick when the ache is caused by a blow or a mild infection that will go away after a few days. Pour some whisky or vodka on a cotton ball and apply it to the affected tooth.
