Yes, the U.S. Marine Corps conducts classified operations as part of its broader mission to support national security objectives. These operations may include special reconnaissance, direct action missions, and other activities that require secrecy to protect sensitive information and methods. Such operations are typically carried out by specialized units, like the Marine Raiders, under the oversight of higher command structures.
MARSOC MARine Special Operations Capable
No; not unless they volunteer for special operations.
No. Delta Force is part of the Army. The Marines have their own special operations forces.
Marines are not on par with the Seals. Marines are a regular force, seals are special operations. A more likely match would be Marine Recon Vs Seal
The Royal Marines are a much smaller body of men who receive a longer and more intensive basic training and more advanced training in special operations skills.
Every Branch in the US Military has its own Special Operations unit. Air Force - AFSOC Marines - MARSOC Army - USSOC Navy - SOCOM
Yes. The Marines created MarSOC in 2006. The 1st and 2nd Marine Special Operations Battalions (MSOB) were created from the Force Recon companies. The 3rd MSOB was created in 2009. They conduct foreign internal defense (training foreign military units), recon, and direct action operations, similar to the Army Special Forces.
MARSOC or MSOC either way Marine Special Operations Command.
No. They go inland. Amphibious operations are something of a rarity anymore... the latest operations have started on land.
The Marines are the United States' rapid reaction force, trained to conduct amphibious and expeditionary operations. They play a crucial role in providing force projection capability, protecting U.S. interests abroad, and conducting various military operations ranging from combat to humanitarian assistance.
with the exceptions of a few jobs (infantry... etc.) and not in direct combat operations... yes.
Marines of different Nations use submarines for covert operations. It is possible for the marines to exit the Submarine while it is still submerged. This is achieved normally through an escape hatch but some submarines have been converted so several marines can exit at the same time with all there equipment. This usually happens quite close to shore and is a very dangerous proceedure.
