War, the air force is the only branch that allows you to go into school first
First to Fight.
The British during the Revolutionary War.
I believe the United States Marine Corp were formed during the the American Revolutionary War to combat the British, in particular the British Royal Marines.
The first and foremost job for the Marines, is to protect the United States from enemys foreign and domestic. During peace time, the Marines have a lot of different jobs to do just like the civilian population does. But, in times of war, it is the Marines that will be sent into the combat zone first. If this isn't what you wanted to know, write me at: devildog73m@yahoo.com. I was in the Marines from 1973-1977
Approximately 391,000 US Marines served in the Vietnam War; approximately 14,838 US Marines died in Vietnam.
Read your MCI, stop cheating
During World War II male marines often referred to female marines as being BAMs which stood for BROAD ASSED MARINES. The female marines returned the favor by referring to male marines as HAMs which stood for HAIRY ASSED MARINES.
I have numerous books on D-Day which say US Marines did not fight there. All 4 Marine divisions were active in the Pacific at that
The Marines train harder than anyone. If they "stepped up" their training, Marines would die before getting to Afghanistan. Even though the Army may have stepped up their training, it's not even half of what the Marines do.
Minimum height US marines
The Germans were the first to use Submarines in World War 1. Now i believe that the marines now do at times.
Nearly 14,000 US Marines were killed in Vietnam, and over 50,000 US Marines were wounded in the war.
