What is the difference between the Army and the Marines?
I'm almost 18 and want to join either the Army and the Marines. What I need to know is what is the difference combat wise? I've heard that the Marines just go for the fighting? Does the Army see a lot of fighting? What is the difference in missions carried out? Please help, and I need good, solid answers, not "the Army are the whimps and clean up crew" or "the Marines are the bullet sponges" like some people I've talked to have said. I just need good, clear answers. Thanks!
Cartman that name says alot. They aren't better trained. They are trained differently on some things but not better. Soldiers can use a large arsenal of weapons such as the 240, 249 SAW, M16/M4, M203 etc Marines are trained to a fine art with their rifles. They shoot from 500 yards and are damn good at it bc it's drilled into them. The Army shoot at 300 yards but the course is actually more difficult because it is random pop ups that disappear and is a hell of alot more difficult than taking your time aiming at a stationary target. Soldiers run 6 miles and marines do the same. The PT test for marines has a 3 mile run while the army is a 2 mile. They CAN run more but don't for testing purposes. The marines are traditionally trained for amphibious assault while the army is more of an occupational force. One helps get the area taken down and the other holds it. This consist of LOTS of fighting in both branches. There isn't much difference in modern urban warfare these days. They both do the same sh*t but work for a different company. Marines have 6-7month deployments while the Army has 12 months. Oh and whoever says simps I'd like to see them try to do what I do and have their a*s over there being shot at. They have killed thousands of terrorist so that's one hell of a clean up crew. Marines have to spearhead in some nasty areas which can get them killed. They are not bullet sponges. These are the answers from gutless 14 year olds and I'm glad you don't pay it any mind. Marines are dept of the Navy. It all depends on the type of mission. The Army will conduct airborne operations to get into certain grounds and there are few qualified for this in the marines as it isn't their typical mission. Marines will use naval assault vehicles for transport and some attacks. Neither is better just a little different. Now days there isn't too much to distinguish them.
Escada nuff said? It's a recruiting commercial. They are a small branch of service operated under the navy, proud? why the hell not, the marines? No sh*t on that one.
Are people really this f*cking stupid?
