Why does the USMC still exist?
The entire corps is just gangbangers, drug addicts, rapists and retards.

They don't do anything that the Army doesn't do better. And their bullshit constantly embarrasses the entire armed forces because they can't stop acting like animals when they go overseas

Political maneuvers during, and every day since WW2. They're entirely replaceable, especially since theit specialization as amphibious troops has been gutted by repeated ground deployments and the irrelevance of massed amphibious landings in modern warfare.

But, to be fair, we still have Airborne assets in the army. Even though nobody has jumped. However, most have them have gone Air Assault, like the 506th. Which I was in. Of course, we still have that airborne pride. The hole area around Fort Campbell does.

Personally, if I could go back in time and change the setup, I'd have the Marine Corps be a subset within the Army with a specific mission, but part of the same organization and overall culture.

They have a specific job, that is a needed job, and that's what they're there for.

All the pointless dickwaving, funding battles and each trying to co-opt the others job to satisfy egotistical bullshit reasons is a pointless waste of energy I'd like to see stop.

Bad troll is bad.

When they send you to MEPS for the marine corps (assuming your recruiter didn't pull your police record and stop you if anything major was found) you'll be disqualified for anything you've been convicted of that will look bad on the Corps.

>>30332443

Poolees are part of the Delayed Entree Program. It's for youths that aren't ready for bootcamp and the point is you go to PT twice a week for anywhere from a month or two up to a year. No shit they're not in shape

If you actually look at stuff like the 1st marine div you'd see that there is quite a bigger emphasis on mobility. To get a large group of people anywhere in the world quickly, you'll need boats. It's also nice to have good and normal relations with the guys who have boats. They've also been conducting amphibious ops with people like Koreans in the Pacific.

Compartmentalization is a very valuable thing, and if we folded them together you'd have a force the size of the army that has to focus on doing two separate and very different duties at the same time. They're also going to be expected to do them well. You might as well fold the coast guard into the navy too cause its a maritime thing right?

That's because "The Division" is on par with, or even worse than, the USMC regarding indoctrination and brainwashing. They think they're the hottest shot, and life outside the 82nd is a sentence worse than death. Honestly anon, ask anybody that's worked with or around them. It's pretty fucking weird NorK level shit.
>>
>>30330694
We have the army for fighting bow wielding Indians, unarmed Confederate civilians, underage nazis, and jumping onto unoccupied LZs in Iraq. We have the Marines to fight the nation's enemies.
>>
I think we should just accept that infantry are the main issue and that the Marines consist almost entirely of infantry is the problem. If there was a Marine who did something like, uhh, aviation, I'd think they were a higher class person than an infantryman in the army.
>>
>>30334637
But every branch is already compartmentalized to hell and back. The army has all kinds of infantry, air forces and so on. I don't see how that would be an issue for the Navy. And it clears up a lot of the issues with the Marines being a pseudo branch.

The Coast Guard has a very different role from the Navy. The Navy is expeditionary, the CG is domestic. I would argue that CG could be absorbed by DHS.
>>
>>30334730
I'm currently in the 82nd and it's shit. The culture is terrible compared to my last unit (the 101st), and the only redeeming factor is the high GT scores from all the SF-tryout-washouts.

They can still be assigned to work with the navy, just not their own independent legal entity.

Do the exact same job, just be a naval infantry subset of the general army rather than handling all their own stuff.

Speaking to various family and friends who've served, the opinion of marines is usually either "Okay guys who did their jobs like anyone else" or "Completely self centered dickheads convinced they were better than everyone at everything."

I know one who hates the French and says he will beat the hell out of one for talking to him.

Yeah, I understand that. I guess I meant their intended role is as a domestic force. That's why I think they'd be better suited under the DHS umbrella rather than DOD and specifically out of USN control.

I also think they should be more focused on life saving and actual threats rather than on fucking around with drug traffickers but that's a domestic policy issue not a military one.

Not trying to troll anybody, just relaying what I personally have heard from people in the service.

Opinions seem to range from "They're fine" to "Gloryhound idiots whose purpose is to soak machinegun fire ahead of more valuable units" and such similar things.

Pretty sure the closest I've ever come to actually talking to a marine was someone on /k/ claiming he was a marine, who got incredibly pissed at me for 'insulting' the corps when in reality I was trying to defend them from what I thought was an insulting media portrayal, and he misinterpreted what I was saying so hard it did a complete 180.

So make of that what you will.

Yep. I get tired of hearing about the one beach landing and all that. It's especially awful when it's just a thread of people making up bullshit stories
>>
>>30336337
I really have no idea.

What I was trying to talk about was how R Lee Ermy's character from Full Metal Jacket was originally written to be nothing more than a sadist who tormented recruits for his own sick amusement and genuinely enjoyed their suffering, and Ermy salvaged the character somewhat with his knowledge of how it actually worked, but I didn't think he could quite save the character which I thought was badly written.

Then somehow a self-proclaimed marine got upset at me for daring to say what I thought marines ought to be and behave like, and I had no right to talk about the marine corps and how dare I try to pass judgement on his people.

I tried, and failed to explain that I was trying to defend 'his brothers' from being portrayed like sadistic lunatics in popular media but he was too offended to listen and just kept going on and on and on about espirit de corps and 'you have no right' until I gave up and left.

Infantry Marine here(0351). Yes, we're often a belligerent bunch of animals. We believe we're better than anyone save the SpecOps community. We have a culture of violence and disregard for human life. Weakness of any sort is openly ridiculed, especially by your friends. And I love it. It's a legitmate warrior culture. As a result, when we go to war, we're some vicious, sadistic, bloodthirsty motherfuckers(see Fallujah, Ramadi, Tarawa, Belleau Wood, ect). I'd think you'd rest easy knowing that's the sort of men that defend freedom. Granted, yes, a lot of guys don't know when to flip the switch and act like a civilized person when around civilians. So yeah, we've quite fairly earned every negative stereotype about us. Sorry about that. Don't expect us to change, though.

Because the American people want a marine corps and they get results. Also you talk about criminals getting in the usmc but the enlistment criteria are far more stringent then the army's or navy's. Bunch of insecure kiddies from other branches ITT or people who've never even served or been around marines(like that one SWCC kid in the thread). The real problem with our military is they are lowering standards across the board. The entire military is basically turning into just another government job that offers opportunities and career placement to wymen and minorities.

They're basically Army reserves. When soldiers need a break marines are sent in.

I could see the Corps transitioning to a space warfare role in the next few centuries (provided civilization lasts that long). They'd go back to doing what a true seafaring marines did in the past, namely interdictions, landings, and boardings.

The Muhreens get this "dumb muscle landnigger" attitude from the Navy and the Army just joins in on the easy target. Having both the major service branches (one of whom controls your pursestrings) shitting on you 24/7 tends to influence the culture.

Its because infantry have to deal with the bullshit that POGs don't want to deal with. By that point they know their place and they aren't so high and mighty about it. Most Marines that I have talked to or PT'd with are pretty cool and aren't complete autistic shits.

>>30330694
Shitty bait. But I'll bite cause I'm a faghot

1. Marines battle history >army battle history. Look at wons, losses, and fighting force sizes. Philippines, marines took to the jungles as the army was captured.

2. Marines pushed into iraq in 21 days, as the army occupied what the marines gave them, they had to go back and help the army un fuck themselves.

3. Why was the army spraying usmc on their humvees? Cause the pajamen knew that if they shit at that vehicle they would be hunted down, unlike the army.

>Why does the USMC still exist?

What else could torment junior enlisted 'muhreens?

It's chicken and egg kind of thing. Corps itself exists to torment junior enlisted and junior enlisted 'muhreens exist to give the corps something to torment.

Bit stranger case than typical 'muhreens rape story. Guy is apparently half nigger half jap based on quick google search. Pic related says everything.

Not sure why all you faggots are hating on the Marines

they're the only branch that swears loyalty to the constitution - no one else, not even the president.

that's why the federal government hates them and now the federal government has more employees with guns than the entirety of the US marines - they know the Marines are not on their side.

Meanwhile the Army is full of bootlicking faggots http://www.esquire.com/news-politics/politics/news/a45771/mcchrystal-assault-weapons/ who are literally training for Martial Law.

>Well, we are marines, not fucking soldiers.

Lets try dictionary definition of soldier... according to Merriam-Webster.

>Full Definition of soldier
>1
>a : one engaged in military service and especially in the army
>y : an enlisted man or woman
>c : a skilled warrior

If marines aren't soldiers.. they aren't skilled warriors or they don't serve in military.

Term soldier in broader sense covers airmen, sailors, 'muhreens and even folks in army... regardless of their rank.

Since I'm dealing with a 'muhreen let include simplified version..
>Simple Definition of soldier
>: a person who is in the military : a member of an army
>: a person who is in the military

or

>a member of an army

Your move.

Only in part of world where marines aren't soldiers is USMC.
>>
>>30354562
its an American Armed Service thing navy has sailors, airforce airmen, army soldier, and marines which are just sailors that want to be airborn rangers.

Just because you don't hear about them doesnt mean they don't happen.

>>30330694

Because when you need to send armed forces somewhere, the marines are your best bet. They are basically a mini military that doesn't need the other branches to operate. Due to their smaller size and budget, the marines have become more flexible and agile, something that army doctrine preaches but doesn't practice. So while the beaucracy of the navy, gender politics of the army, and a hang nail prevents air force from engageing the enemy, the marines will already be there shooting and killing the enemies of the Constitution.

>the marines will already be there shooting and killing the enemies of the Constitution.
or at least they'll try to, until the ROE updates and they have to get approval from the army FOB which has yet to exist to engage anything.
the USMC is like any other branch. it cannot function fully autonomously.
it needs the navy's carriers for its jets, the army to help with logistics, the air force to support them in killing shit, and more marines to jerk them off.

Actually you are soliders..? So get over you god complex because when you're dying of whatever, all you will have with you whwn you die is anger. Anger that will have nowhere to go, but at yourself while you regret so many things. So keep it up, bud.

Slavboos start writing in Cryllic and then it's pretty much over. Also, they're more cheeky than MUHreens. If every Jarhead didn't get so booty blasted about every single slight to his beloved Corps honor, people would leave them alone.

They bring a lot of it on themselves by interjecting the fact that they were a Marine where it doesn't belong, and by dismissing others opinions, and even facts, by assuming they weren't innaCorps. They don't even stop to think, that the guy who's talking about standard mine clearance procedure in a confident, clinical manner, might have dealt with them for a living, because it doesn't match up with what Daddy Gunny told them when they were an 0311. So they start bleating on about how the speaker is ignorant and a never served, then start claiming stolen valor when the person claims they did. It's like arguing with five year olds. On the flip side, its really easy to bait and screw with them, so people do.

This is 4chan after all.
