We are trained to utilize almost every weapon an infantry marine is trained to use. Depending on what type of corpsman IE recon corpsmen you are trained in almost every weapon the marines use and if you are a seal corpsmen you are trained in pretty much the use of all weapons/explosives. When i was deployed with the marines I carried an M4(smaller version of the m16) and a m9. I was trained on using the 50 cal, the m9, the 249 saw, m16/m4. This was for just incase purposes if i ever needed to pick up and use of the weapons in a certain situation. It just depends on what type of corpsmen you are and the situation you will be in. We rarley try to carry many weapons because we would rather carry medical aid supplies in place of those weapons. I hope this helped.

Corpsman has a Marine Corps emblem that has the eagle globe and anchor but the anchor is not a fouled anchor The original emblem has a fouled anchor When was this collar emblem was authorized?

In my time in the Marine Corps, I have never seen a Navy Corpsman wearing anything resembling a Marine Corps emblem (Eagle, Globe, and Achor). Navy Corpsman do however wear a Hospital Corpsman emblem on their left collar and their rank insignia on the right side collar. The Hospital Corpsman emblem looks like a shield with the medical symbol of 2 snakes wrapped around a staff or rod with wings. They are allowed to wear Marine Corps Uniforms, but are not allowed to wear any Marine Corps insignia; they must instead wear insignia identifying them as being Navy personal. When wearing the Marine cammies, they do not have the EGA (Eagle, Globe, and Anchor) on the cover (hat) or left side breast pocket. They also have US Navy on the left name tape, instead of US Marine. They are however expected to maintain Marine Corps standards when in a Marine Uniform. All of this is explained in MCO P1020.34F. Add: I'm sitting here looking at my husband's (A Navy Corpsman) cover and there is, in face, an EGA on the front of the cover. ADD The corpsman never use to wear it till recently when they began using the marine core marpat uniform if they were a field corpsman which has an eagle globe and anchor on the pocket and cover. Though they are not marines they still wear it since they serve with the marines.
