Who pays better the army or marine corps?
all branches follow the same pay scale, so an E1 or Private in the army makes the same as an E1 in the Marines. supposedly the army will promote people faster than the Marines but it comes down to how hard you're willing to work at your job.
What do the letters AWOL stand for?
Absent Without Official Leave as in if you do a crime and you are down in any base example: Milatary, army, marines, etc, you are AWOL.
How is the Army better than Marines?
That question might have been asked by a recruiter or in a local tavern and is only intended to stir up a brawl. The US Fleet has strategic weapons designed to vaporise cities, countries and continents that the Army lacks. The Navy and Marine Corps Fighter Squadons would tip the balance over Army Helicopters and sheer numbers. Balistic missles provide a bigger bang then MLRS and artillery. The Navy, Marines and Air Force are not intended to hold terrain; that's why the Army exists. Each branch of the military has its mission and is trained to complete their task. Part of that training is teamwork. As a US soldier, I recall assisting Marines in repairing their combat equipment. Air Force bases were often protected by Soldiers and Marines as they were trained in ground warfare. A Navy base usually has a Marine unit to secure the base. Most Soldiers and Marines get along very well, one Marine when asked why stated "We eat the same dirt!"
Can army be stationed at a marine base?
Yes, they are part of the Navy. At most Naval Stations the US Marines provide the security. There are Marines stationed on certain ships that also provide security on board.
Where do marines live?
In the sea, that is what 'marine' means.
If you are in the marines stationed on a Naval Base do you still have a Marine Corps Ball?
Yes, Marines stationed on a Naval Base still have a Marine Corps Ball. The Marine Corps Ball is a traditional event that celebrates the birthday of the United States Marine Corps, and it is observed by Marines regardless of their duty station. The location of the base does not affect the celebration of this event.
What base has the hardest boot camp?
THE MARINE CORPS IS THE TOUGHEST BOOT CAMP OUT THERE AND ONLY THE TOUGHEST SURVIVE. THERE IS NO IF ANDS OR BUTS. Responses to this will vary depending on the service. Typically and traditionally, Paris Island, South Carolina for the USMC is considered one of the toughest. I will say, the Marines are very tough, but the Army is right up there with it, and the Air Force, is becoming way more like the Army and the Marines in that their PT is just as challenging, they learn the EXACT same stuff the others do, tactics, rifle usage, etc. The same amount of stress is put on them, and they carry the same attitudes that you Mighty Marines do. Marines probably have the toughest boot camp with the Army right there with it, followed by the Air Force.
How many different Marine jobs are there?
There are many kinds from snipers to infantry to air force. Each and everyone of them are in the USMC. Plus, there are different types of Army, Navy, and Air Force.The list can go on and on. But in the marines you have to go through several steps such as a 14 week workout plan at the base, plus writing, which you must pass. In return you get more training but better results than the army and more high-tech equipment.

Oceanside is a military town thanks to the Marines. Call the marine base and ask them where the army recruiter is. They'll be able to tell you in a flash.
