Same reason they have to put the little stips of white tape on there cover, socks, shoes, undershirts and everything else they wear. Even dog tags. It's Identification. In case something happens to them. Also when you have a room of Marines everyone's gear looks the same so this also helps keep track of which item belongs to which Marine.

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.
