The Marines are the best fighting force in the world and are trained more intensively than the army
Most of the guys in the army are there for the paycheck. Marines are trained less and fight more
Really, I wanted to say both but since we can only choose one (which by the way, should be changed so we can vote for both choices), I'd have to say the marines.
First to fight for right and freedom and to keep our honor clean, and 13 WEEKS OF TRAINING TO THE AMRY'S 8
Even though I'm a veteran of the Army, I feel the training to becoming a Marine is intenser and Marines are conditioned more than Army soldiers to go into the heart of battle.
I'm a former MARINE
Marines are a far fewer force, and they are expected to hold out without supplies or reinforcements for long periods of time.
Because We are the best
Combat is what the marines do, and all of them are trained to be as good if not better as the army rangers.
I was a Marine. Trained with the army. They lack the discipline of the Marines.
i was a combat marine
marines are on the front lines while the army is a safe distance away
Oorah, quotes and wars are witnesses
because the marine are sometimes the people that are the elit and the first on the battle fild like the marine raiders in the veitnam war.
there in the front lines
ewf
hhhoooorrraaahhhhh
marines seem to be more active in combat and securing areas than the army
What you are saying are facts. But comparing the Army vs the Marines should not be based on their mission, or how they fight, organize, train, or equip but should be based on the effects during and after their mission. The Army and Marines are almost similar being ground forces but each of them has their own core competencies. However, the Marines is endowed with distinct competency that the Army does not have ... to do more with less, its part of their service's culture I think.
According to US Army General "Black Jack" Pershing, the best weapon in the world is a "Marine and his Rifle".
The Marines are proud to serve their country because whatever they do they valued it with their lives. Relating this culture in terms of money, the pay they receive or things they buy they always recognize their money's worth instead of saying I'm receiving a daily pay of "500 Dollars", they will say "Half a Grant": or Half a Million not 500,000 Dollars, etc...
They signed up knowing that they would be the first to fight
first to fight, last to leave.
First, the Marines are NOT a small part of the Navy. The USMC and the USN are both under the Department of Navy.
Second, the Marine motto "Every Marine a Rifleman".
Third, the Army has some excellent units, i.e. Rangers, 10th mountain, Airborne, etc.
Fourth, both the Army and the Marines have some VERY Brave troops.
Fifth, a MAGTF is a self sustaining combined arms force. It and army BCT are as self sustaining as logistics and re-supply will allow.
People join the Marine Corps because they are they best. There is a reason why people join the Army. Because they don't want to join the Marine Corps.
The Marine Corps has a harder, more intense, and longer bootcamp, followed by Infantry Training. Unlike the Army, whose uniforms do not measure up either.
Although both selfishly serve this country, and do a great job at it. The main question is who would you rather have next to you in a fox hole? I would have to go with the US Marine.
they are brain washed
They are the first to fight in the event of a war.
They are at the fore front wont you need brave peple to do that
They are the best of the best. Quality vs quantity.
Harder training, less things to work with, more discipline, get the job done quicker, and are way better infantrymen
first to fight
Both are great branches, I just believe the marines have a higher selectivity when it comes to psychological and physical standards.
Warriors
frontlines
Because OORAH!!
the go on water where bad thing live
there better
There in the front line
The Few. The Proud.
I believe the Marine Corps has troops because they have far better military bearing and every Marine I have met has been polite, and very sharp looking, while also possessing a keen eye. All the Army personel I have met have not had a certain look in their eyes. (Their eyes sort of look glazed over and don't have a fire to them)
operating with limited front line support a long time and not considering the logistic capabilities of your opponent is a crucial task and risk to undertake as military.
merica
The army has braver soldiers because all soldiers are in the army morons. Marines are Marines! semper fi
I am a marine ****
They are assigned tougher missions than the army
the army has numbers. but its quality over quantity.
Army breeds mediocrity. Marine Corps breeds leaders
They are like brothers and they take care of each other all the time❤️
The Few The Proud The Marines. Tougher Training, Better Men.
I've friends in both
To start with, the Marines aren't "soldiers".
They wrench the first ones deployed
