The Marine Corps have the toughest boot camp in the entire world...they are the nations finest warriors - this branch is the most physically demanding out of all other branches because you have to run 3 miles in 28 minutes - plus they are the only branch that requires you do dead hang pull ups (unless you're a chick in which you do something similar) but also you must do about 55 sit ups in 2 minutes and 5 dead hang pull ups...the whole mentality of the Marine Corps is toughness, the Crucible which is the 'final exam' if you will, of boot camp is tougher than anything any other boot camp has to endure (you should look up the USMC crucible it's really interesting)...Marines need to be hardcore because they are the tip of the spear, so to speak, the first one to go on, kickin down the door if you will...unless of course you count like navy seals but you have to go to boot camp before you can become a seal, and marine corps boot camp is the best one to prepare you for seals or anything like that.
I'm a Marine, so, Marines.
The U.S army was established first. Marines were first used to defend ships theyn wore leather on their necks so when enemies boarded they could cut there head off. That is why they inherit the name leather necks. And beofre you ask who is better just let me answer for you the army is better. I answered several other questions about who is better so go check my answers out.
Marine boot camp - 12 weeks Army boot - 8 weeks Marines are generally known to be more strict and disciplined while the army has greater numbers.......of course it depends on if you ask an army cat or marine. I was both, and the Marines train all the time and are EXTREMELY strict on physical fitness tests, so I would say the USMC does.
Because they have better training and firepower against the drug cartels.
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.
Yes the US army is better. Any marine well tell you other wise but that is because they are brainwashed. The 82nd airborne in the US army are the first to fight. They are paratroopers. The army's snipers are better then the marine snipers. This is proved by the fact that the army beats them every Year in top sniper. Some people well say well that's not combat that is just targets but this is not the only proof that they are better. For more info on that just simple research snipers. The us army offers more then 150 jobs therefore it is also better. The marines are nothing but the navy's infantry don't listen to anyone who tells you otherwise. My dad is a 13 year captain in the u.s army and i will be enlisting in a year. This also gives me the opportunity to know more. Lastly i have a Friend who is trying to switch from the marines to the army because he does not thin they are good at all. I don't care what anyone said about marines being first to fight all the marines do is brand there name into your head. Here is an example think about this. Your average person said can i have a Kleenex's. But i believe Kleenex is a brand not a tissue this is called branding. When your average person goes to a restaurant they ask for coke but maybe its Pepsi this is branding. Its called the marines brainwashing our country. I watch the news and see US army soldiers walking through Iraq but they call them marines this is branding!!!!!!!!! So believe what you want but you are wrong if you think the marines are better in any aspect. GO ARMY HOOOOAAHHH!!!!!!The Marines are better than the Army, because the Corps have armed helicopters, (the Cobra), and armed fixed wing aircraft (the Hornet and the Harrier). The Army only has armed helicopters (the Apache). If the Apache isn't good enough to provide air support for the Army, they the Army has to beg the Air Force to pretty please send in the A-10 Warthog, which the Air Force plans to send to scrap heap in Tucson, Arizona and replace with the F-35 Lighting II as soon as possible.
no john cena was never part of army or marines he was just a supporter and the dog tag is just for the respect to marines and army. know any one can get a dog tag
The Marines sail on ships, has fighter jets, and has ground troops. The Army has ground troops and only has helicopters for support. The Army is just more oriented around ground combat. Correct: But I'll add on. Marines are the first to fight. The Marines first were embellished to fight in the American Revolutionary War; 1770's. The Marine Corps Logo(The Bald Eagle on Planet Earth) and Motto, Semper Fidelis( Always Faithful) was adopted around the 1883. The Marines first Cadence, Hymn, was heard around 1886. The Marines have kept that Logo and Motto ever since, it's a sacred honor for those who fallen( KIA=Killed in Action) to give America our freedoms.
US. marines because of there expertise is in killing terrorists and anyone/anything that threatens there country.Also to the army is a larger branch so it just depends on the person that you are if you fear the big guys that can pick you up and through you like a football then you fear the Marines army is usually anyone that doesn't like being screamed at by the DI'S. but this is just my opinion.
Esprit de Corps
Pay depends on rank and job so it varies.
well it depends on if you want to be worked harder..if you join the Marines they have a very tough boot camp that will stretch you to your limits..the Army does still have a hard boot camp but they are not a rigorous as the Marines
