Pretty uniforms for making nice TV commercials but to small a force to be of any consequence.  Army is where the ground work gets done and I'll give a shout out to the Air Force and Navy since they control the Nukes, the ultimate peacemakers.  In all seriousness though, I hope you stay safe and come home to an awesome Camaro ASAP.  |
The way it works is the MC takes a section of an area over (ground work) then the army comes in holds that while the marines push foward and do it all over. Then when the army loses it, the marines have to come back and fix what was screwed up!!! If you have ever seen Black Hawk Down that is exactly what happend. The whole movie is about the army doing what they do best
This has also happend several times in Iraq! one being the battle for Fallujah
The USMC is a branch of the Navy meaning a part of the navy. Land,Air,Sea
Capabilities. The MC also has air wings meaning Air capabilities.
We dont work for the army they fall under us.
Who Guards the president... Not the army or AF
If a Marine decides to go to the army or any other branch of service more than likely will get a promotion in that branch for being a marine. If any other branch decides to become a Marine after being in the service they have to go through boot camp all over again.
A lil info is the reason my unit is still in this country is because....an Army unit needs us to stay
this is a fact!
I do appreciate you concern though!!! thank you and Cant wait to actually see one in person!!! good luck to you!!
