There are five branches of military forces in the US. These branches are, in ascending order of combat engagement, The Coast Guard, The Air Force, The Navy, The Marine Corps, and The Army. Many consider the Marines to be a sub-group of the Navy. The federal government also has Border Patrol, ATF, and FBI agents who are uniformed.
In addition, there are uniformed law enforcement services who serve individual states, counties, and cities, such as National Guard, State Police/Highway Patrol, County Sheriff Departments, and City Police.

Why does the US Marines seal read Department of the Navy?
Because the Marine Corps, along with the US Navy, are the two uniformed services which comprise the Department of the Navy. This department is a component of the Department of Defense.
Is the Marine Corps a division of the Navy?
No. The US Marine Corps is not a division of the US Navy. Because the Marines and the Navy are so inter-twined in their combat actions, both services fall under the authority of the Secretary of the Navy. The Navy is commanded by a 4-star admiral called the Chief of Naval Operations. The U.S. Marine Corps is commanded by a 4-star general called the Commandant of the Marine Corps. Both services are represented with a seat in the Joint Chiefs of Staff. There are three catagories of US Service Branches: (1) Uniformed, armed, military; (2) uniformed, armed; (3) uniformed, unarmed. There are five uniformed, armed, military services branches for the USA: Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard. There are two uniformed, armed services: the US Forest Service (with police authority); and the US Marshals Service (a Federal law enforcement service). There is one uniformed, unarmed service: the US Public Health Service (of which the Surgeon General and the Centers for Disease Control & Prevention {CDC} are most noted). There are some units that wear uniforms, and some that are armed, but they are not "service branches". Border Patrol officers, Immigration officers, and other units with police-like authority are examples. The US Postal Service stands alone. It is often mistaken for a government-owned corporation (e.g., Amtrak), but is legally defined as an "independent establishment of the executive branch of the Government of the United States". The USPS has soveriegn immunity and can negotiate treaties with other countries without presidential or congressional approval. How about that?
