active service men is a term that would cover all of those groups

What is the name for Roman soldiers?

The Latin name for a soldier is "miles" -- a generic term.

If you where to be a soldier what do you will choose to be a soldier or a sniper?

I chose to be a Combat Medic, personally. Soldier is a very broad term, and encompasses a number of roles in any army. Truck drivers, administrative clerks, infantrymen, snipers, tank crew members, helicopter pilots, cooks, and members of military bands are all soldiers. So, even if you serve as an army sniper, you're still a soldiers really what i am saying navy,airforce,coastguard,and marines they are all soldiers they just have different names for the branches BUT EVERY ONE IN THE MILITARY IS STILL A SOLDIER!!!!


Why marines are not called soldiers?

Marines are not called soldiers because they belong to a distinct branch of the military, specifically the Marine Corps, which has its own unique mission, training, and culture. While "soldier" typically refers to members of the Army, Marines are often trained for amphibious warfare and rapid response operations. This differentiation emphasizes their specialized roles and the unique operational focus of the Marine Corps within the armed forces.


What do marines prefer the fire mode of the m16?

Where can you get names of soldiers from NE to correspond with?

Your local Red Cross can help you find a local soldier to correspond with. Also, local base commander's are always happy to find home town residents that care enough about the sacrifices made by local soldiers to correspond with them. Barring that, a national organization called Any Soldier operates a website, anysoldier.com that will help put you in touch with a soldier. A simple questionnaire about you hobbies and interests (including home town) will help find a match.


Are servicemen and soldiers the same?

Yes and no. Servicemen, service members, etc. are a bit more general, and typically refer to someone in the military, in whichever branch, be it Army, Navy, Marines, Coast Guard, Air Force... soldier is a term specific to the Army.


Can a soldier in the USMC transfer to the army rangers?

Well, this could be seen as a trick question - "soldier" is a term exclusive to the Army - Marines are Marines. That aside, the answer is no. If someone receives an honourable discharge from the Marines, and decides to reenlist into the Army, they could go through RIP (if they're below E5) to go into a Ranger Battalion, or, if they're E5 or higher, they could go directly in if they have already graduated from the US Army Ranger School (which some Marines do attend).
