minus-squareRedC@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoEasy, the navy flies the big boats and the USMC get set loose to weed out a country’s crayon supply.
minus-squareMrShankles@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoWell, they often enjoy eating a variety of crayons, for one? USMC is an independent branch, but does serve under the Navy. They used to be completely independent, until they were placed under the Navy in 1834. Different responsibilities, roles, training, structure, culture, etc… but they still report to the secretary of the Navy. I wanna know what Navy Seals eat

minus-squareAlexstarfire@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoSeals. It’s in the name.
minus-squareGot_Bent@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoDon’t they use Marines to man the brig on ships? Not sure where I heard that, so could totally be talking out my ass here.
minus-squareIlovethebomb@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoHistorically, yes. The Marines were responsible for discipline on the ship, including arresting sailors, guarding the officers, and manning the brig.
minus-squarethechadwick@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoIf you ask a Marine they’ll confirm that they’re a department of the Navy, but then qualify it as “the men’s department” before devolving into a yut-fest
minus-squareThatWeirdGuy1001@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·5 months agoFrom what I heard while joining the marines were originally the ones that would defend the crew of military vessels. Like in old ship combat if your ship was boarded the marines were the ones fighting them off.
