From where exactly? The Bar?

The Marines Core exists because Hollywood and Broadway needed someone to order the Code Red.

Well until you showed up. Thanks for fricking that up for me.

Sadly, a lot of Marines, regardless of MOS, feel that way.

My hatred for you is getting less, I'm honestly surprised that we've never known this about each other haha. I'm truly not an ahole.

I love that this thread is still going. Easily one of my shitiest of all time.

Because we all recognize it as a gloriously shitty thread. So there are no stakes to posting in it and we get enraged Marines logging in from time threatening to kill us all by making us listen to the "Halls of Montezuma" until our spleens lurch through our body and strangle us to stop the horror.

It wasn't the case historically, but today it seems the marines are more selective and better trained so they're needed to spec ops missions. Especially in today's wars where vast numbers of soldiers aren't really necessary most of the time.
Though IMO I think the Navy could keep the SEALs for the same purpose and make the Marines just an elite spec ops portion of the army. Or just go back to selecting better army candidates and train them better. The Army today is a mess

As a Cavalry Vet I approve this post.
In '04 had to move two whole battalions of Stryker infantry to Fallujah from Mosul to support the marines in that fight.

He's at peak "Muh Marines" level of meme. He's bought the ads so much that he thinks they're basically SF.

He's all over the place in that post. Replace the entire USMC with the SEALS?

I've always said that the most elite unit in the marines is the marketing team.
