not very often. I did 2 tours to Iraq and 1 to afghan in the Marine Corps infantry as enlisted. officers have a choice as to whether or not they want to go out on a mission. sometimes they might have to go out for a key leader engagement, or a meeting at a FOB (small base) with other Marines. to tell you the truth unless you are in the infantry you will probably never experience combat, im not trying to talk bad about non infantry jobs, but with the rotations and the combat situations TODAY, its not likely. in the early years of iraq and afghan most people deployed would see combat, but thats not how it is today as everything is slowing down. even if you get in the infantry, not all grunt units deploy to afghan anymore. a lot of them go on floats aboard ships to ports and train. if you make it as a Marine officer just remember that you are the new guy, a boot. your senior LCPL, and NCOs have already been there. listen to what they say bc they know what theyre talking about. dont ever think that your dick is bigger than theirs, its not.

Do marine Officers go in combat?

yes Marine officers to go in combat. Atleast mine did Yes. If a Marine officer's job takes them and their Marines into harms way, they will go into combat regardless of his military occupational specialty (MOS). Every Marine is a rifleman. Every Marine officer is trained as an infantry officer first. Marine pilots are all officers. Squadrons are in the odd position of the enlisted men sending their officers out to fight (with the exception of the enlisted men who are gunners on aircraft with crew served weapons).

Combat multipliers are factors or elements that enhance the effectiveness of military operations and increase the combat power of a force. They can include superior training, advanced technology, morale, intelligence, and logistics support.

Effective use of combat multipliers can significantly influence the outcome of military engagements.


How did the police deal with the riots in Manchester?

When riots occur in the UK, special tactical officers are brought in to deal with public disorder on a large scale. These officers are specially trained in dealing with dangerous situations, carrying out warrants on properties, dispersing large mobs of people, and using extra force to detain dangerous criminals. Lots of preparation and practise is put into training to make sure officers are ready for anything that the country throws at them. The 2011 August riots were a clear example of the huge number of Tactical officers brought in to stop the looting and rioting. Tactical officers are often seen in vans marked with a square signifying 'Tactical Aid Unit'. Often with windscreen shields, these vans can carry up to a dozen officers safely and securely, while they can put their riot gear on before arriving at the emergency. This lowers the time of officers arriving at the situation. Normal Police Officers are often not trained to this standard.


Are Marine officers likely to die?

Honestly not as likely as, say , a Junior Enlisted (Pvt, PFC, LCpl), senior NCO's (Non-Comissioned Officer; Cpl, Sgt,) or SNCO's (Staff NCO's; SSgt, GySgt, MSgt, 1stSgt, MGySgt, SgtMaj, SgtMajMarCor) because they don't go into combat AS often, they tend to stay at base and give orders, but are not exempt from combat situations. If you are asking becuase you are considering a career, yes it's considered a career, as a USMC Officer, the factor of your own moratlity should be evaluated before considering ANY branch of service.

What is another name for navy noncoms?

Enlisted men in the US Navy are often called "Blueshirts". Chiefs are enlisted supervisors who wear the same khaki uniforms that officers wear. Hence, both are often referred to as "the khakis". But Chiefs are sometimes called Chiefs, while Officers are more often called "khakis". Special Operations such as SEAL/SWCC often refer affectionately to regular Navy personnel as "blackshoes" or "shoes" since they usually wear their issued boondocker shoes instead of combat boots.
