The difference is front line or away from major combat. Most people would prefer positions away from major combat, which the Navy specializes in. Navy would be my first choice if I went into the military

While that may be true if you were to enlist, the Naval Academy is different. A significant portion of each graduating class will go on the be USMC officers. Not to mention other Navy combat roles. It's been suggested more than once in this thread that someone would choose Annapolis because they would be less likely to serve in a combat role, which is really fricking insulting to each of those young men. Others have suggested that standards are more lax at Annapolis, which is also incorrect. The standards and requirements are equally strenuous between the service academies. Navy's football team has been dominate within the service academies because of coaching and system.
