not quite...
Army refers to only officers as sir. everyone else you refer to their rank. "yes staff sgt."
never heardth navy say ay ay, though they might.m you also us3 diffrent forms of adress when ur deployed and at home so they probly say ay ay on subs or something.
same thing with the marines... only "yes sir" for officers, and corrisponding rank for everyone else....staff, gunny, etc...
the airforce is the only branch that refers to everyone highr than you as "sir", but its just yes sir...and believe you me, nothing pisses off the army like calling an E6 "sir".
but dont believe everything you see in the movies.
