The Few, The Proud, The Marines

The Marines is a branch of the U.S. Armed Forces that provides U.S. power projection at sea. As outlined in the National Security Act of 1947, the marines have 3 primary responsibilities. This includes the seizure of advanced naval bases as well as land operations in order to support campaigns of the navy and other duties that the President of the United States may direct.  The Marine Corps’ historical mission is to function as an infantry unit inside naval ships. Today of course, the Marines do more than that.

Training to be a marine is very rigid that is why the Marines are a proud bunch and with reason of course. Driven by purpose and guided by American values, the Marine Corps is only made up of quality citizens who will fight for the country and the freedom it enjoys. There is no easy way in though because the Marine Corps is only a place for warriors.
