Assuming you are not a troll or butthurt navy. Compared to army they have per capita about as many dumb fucks but 2 to 3 times as many truly competent hardcore types. The racial disparities are more noticeable and they are generally treated more like shit. So to answer your question no very few are you are just not used to people unwilling to deal with unnecessary bullshit

I wonder how the fuck that airman is trying to measure efficiency as I know damned well it is not by cost of operation, maintenance, or ordinance when a well placed morter can do wonders for 1% of the cost when its close enough. But I guess for the fuck outta range type strikes when they are the only option might be an argument.

arent the marines just a memebranch invented by the navy to get more funding?

I'm good friends with a marine. He's an idiot but he's not insufferable. He and I always end up getting into trouble together when we go out. He's escalated many situations into barfights just for the hell of it.

Actually, do you know who are the absolute worst? The people who change their usernames and gamer tags to "devildogUSMCoorah", wear USMC shit, and talk all this bullshit about how great marines are? It's the kids who haven't even gone to boot yet. It's high school kids who to be Marines. They are the biggest fucking try hards in the world.
>>
>>33336072
Look at history nigger

The navy and marine corps has always been at the presidents discretion. Our first foreign intervention was the Barbary pirates battles which was fought by navy and Marine corps. Up till ww2 the army was always expected to be mustered and funded by the states. Constitutionally speaking and budget wise, Air Force is more likely to be rolled back first by being integrated with the Army, and then the army second since congressional approval is needed. From a 'needs' standpoint the regular army and air force are large, expensive, capable but difficult get approval to deploy.

The navy and Marine corps arent going anywhere.

>>33335520
They're the people who bought the line that being treated worse is a honor because it totally makes you a deadlier warrior. They're the people who joined to get that pretty dress uniform so they could get all the pussy like the recruiters said they would. They want glory.

But, after four years or so in the corps, I feel like many if not most mature and are cool. Some do become bitter edgelords, but then again you have those guys in the army too.

Oddly enough you could argue that most of our wars that we've fought in the past 60 years have been stalemates because of over reliance on tactical arerial support against assymetric guerilla types.

>>33335520

I'd say it's about 20% idiots, 70% average Joes, and 10% truly intelligent people.

You have the real fucking dumbasses who clearly joined because they didn't have anything else to do in life. Highschool took its toll and college wasn't really an option. These people are usually given the heavy guns to utilize their retard strength. They make it to Corporal on PFT scores alone and stay there until EAS.

The average Joes were the guys like myself. People who bought into the sense of "duty", joined because of family traditions, or simply wanted to travel and get that GI bill. The Joes are average at just about everything: writing orders, landnav, call for fire, leading squads, and just general tactics. Average Joes can make it to all enlisted ranks and most officer ranks with simple tenacity and time.

The intelligent people, they're a unique bunch. These guys excel at almost everything they do in the Corps. They are natural born leaders with inherent tactical mindsets. Sometimes this can be misconstrued as being "moto" but in reality they are just good at what they do. These guys climb the ranks fast, usually getting meritorious promotions with every other rank. Whether or not they decide to stay in the Marine Corps is usually determined by 2 things: 1. Their acceptance into OCS 2. Their acceptance into Special Forces. If for some reason neither of those things happen, they usually decide not to re-enlist, with few exceptions of course.

Nice lie. Or is it simple ignorance?

I nearly aced the ASVAB and was offered a guaranteed position in Intelligence and a $20,000 sign-on bonus if I took a 6 year contract.

Sell your TV and computer, read books all day, quit jacking off, don't fuck with hoes, don't drink or smoke, and train your body to kill, and train your mind to know when and why to kill. In other words, if you're here, it's far, far too late

you're forgetting that, like all marines, he has to have sex with his squadmates "for the bonding"
>>
>>33336568

Friend from HS became a marine, at some point during cold-weather training he and his squad had to snuggle for warmth. He told everyone at a bar that while snuggling they fondled each other's dicks to prove they weren't homos.

Nah. I was Army infantry. I've met infantry from the Marines and unless the guy was a brand new private, they were just like us. They call them "boots" and they're still indoctrinated with that pure CORP MOTO. Cool dudes for the most part.

BUT, if you meet their POGs, be prepared. They're on another level of cringe.

Like clockwork going through IPAC or a regimental office. It doesn't help their SNCO's only embolden them to say that shit too and then shield them with their rank when they cry to them about being called POG fucks.

>>33336792
Some POGs are better than others, though.

The Engineers and Arty guys that are often attached to grunt units for deployments are pretty cool. At least the ones I was with were.
>>
>>33336680
that's adorable

are they still together?
>>
>>33336822

Combat arms besides infantry are their own thing really. It's more of when kids go to the recruiters office and are asked what they want to be as a Marine, the first answer shouldn't be "admin" or "supply". Granted, you will have your recon washouts who get fucked into going into admin but it sucks to suck and you should of pushed through.

Shit, you enlist in the marines to do marine things not civilian things wearing a marine corps uniform. Then again, that's probably why the demographics are the way they are in those MOS's.

>Army boots are on the ground first, every time

Listen, let's clear some shit up here. The old Marine slogan is "First to fight".

This is generally a historical statement referring to the fact that the Marine Corps is the only branch that is forward deployed all year 'round. Not once did I hear any Marine make the claim that "The Marines are always the first to fight, or the first on the ground."

Who's the "first to fight" anyway? Is it the first person to fire a gun? Is it the pilot that drops a bomb somewhere weeks before any ground combat? Is it the special forces/recon guys going in under the veil of darkness to provide intel for an upcoming invasion?

Basically, in a nutshell, you and whoever made the post in your screencap are giant faggots.
>>
>>33336401
No, that's actually real.

>>33337116
The Army takes it and the Marines hold it.
