Default The FAA and the military

When flying CAP aircraft I have to follow the super set of the FAA and
the CAP rules. All our aircraft are owned by the USAF. The currency,
checkout, ops, etc rules are much stricter than the FAA's. We do have
an FAA waver allowing private pilots to fly the aircraft w/o charging
them rental.

What is the relationship of the FAA to the military? Is the FAA the final
word on regulations for everything in the US airspace with the military
using an additional set of their own regulations?
