Why did the marines separate from the navy?
They didn't. The two forces both operate under the Department of the Navy and have a close relationship. Marine forces often provide security on Navy ships, and many Navy ships have Marine units stationed on them (including an air wing) on a semi-permanent basis. Certain "behind the scenes" jobs, such as chaplains or medics, are filled in the Marine Corps ranks by Navy personnel because the Marines don't train those positions. These personnel wear Marine uniforms with Navy insignias. Marine officers are trained at the Naval Academy, and Navy officer training includes some training by a Marine Corps drill instructor.
