Who are the most elite fighting force on the face of the planet

>>33844272
They aren't Australians though

>>33844272
Semper Fi

>United States Marine Corpse
No.
Be all that you can be.
Army Strong.

>>33844288
I've got mad respect for you army guys but the marines are better trained and faster responding and more versatile. Couldn't do it without you boys though

>>33844295
we had to bail you fgts out in ww2

> floating sandbags
> not even the most elite amphibious force because Royal Marines exist
> nowhere near the best because the British Army and UKSF exists

Did someone eat all the blue crayons again?

>>33844421
devil dogs will kick the royal navies ass any day. infact we have already rekt you in 2 wars faggot

Im not even dignifying this^^ level of retardation with a (You)

>>33844272
Spetznaz have the most elite men, but the strongest overall infantry fighting force is probably seals or some other secret american force due to the equipment they have

>>33844433
The requirements to start RM training exceed those to pass out of MARSOC.

>>33844272
Lol they're not even in the group photo

Most elite fighting force would not be marines because any retard can join. Definitely something that is more selective like the SAS or Delta

>>33844453
good get btfo pussy

>>33844480
>>33844454

I'm not talking about special forces who move in small groups. I'm talking about large forces.

nah. USMC is battle proven in the modern day and your pussy ass military is irrelevant besides for the SAS. Get btfo semper fi

>>33844534

Too true...

>>33844272
>Who are the most over memed fighting force on the face of the planet and why is it the USMC?

Fixed that for you.

1171 and 0151 and all the other support MOS are just as big of pogues as any other support MOS in any other military with the only difference being the EGA and Department of the Navy on their PIV card.

>>33844534
Lol and RM aren't battle proven recently? Did the usmc fight a secret war or something that the uk didn't know about? Ever heard of the gulf war, Afghanistan, Iraq? Even some shit in africa

>>33844546
You can say whatever you want but you can't deny facts. Since world war 1 there has been no other force in the world that has achieved more the USMC. We fuck shit up and if you try to talk shit we will show you why the germans gave us the name devil dogs.

>>33844534
> battle proven

British soldiers have fought and died almost continuously for over 150 years, every year except 1968. Your cute little gaggle of inbred farmboys are great mobile sandbags, without doubt, but every major conflict youve been in, the British have been in, and quite a few more on top.

Hence why across the globe the British Army is considered one of the most elite if not the most elite fighting forces, and why officers from all over come to train with us. Including US officers.

Dont worry though marin; its natural to have cock envy of your dad, Papa Britain.

And once again you britcucks are comparing a elite special forces to an expeditionary unit. I'm talking about forces that conduct large scale operations

>>33844563

Honestly adorable seeing as we BTFO of you back in 1776 and if it wasnt for us your pathetic little country would be burning and your women raped by inbred mongrels. keep pretending your still a world power while you hide behind an american flag

>>33844568
Royal marines are not special forces, they're standard naval infantry.

>>33844553
> 'you cant deny facts'
> procedes to spout utter bullshit

Boys, I think we got us another one

>>33844568

Not even any of them, but you're a moron. The RM are a expeditionary force that do large scale operations.

>>33844568
The Royal Marines are the only force in Europe that can conduct amphibious operations at brigade level.

Just because theyre elite, doesnt mean they cant and wont be deployed in force. Imagine a cross between Rangers and US marines, then times the IQ by 1.5.

>>33844588
>>33844582

No. RM are a force consisting of 7,760~ compared to roughly 145,000 of the marines. So no, they are not used for large operations. if anything they are comparable to the army rangers but a maritime environment.

I'm talking about general purpose infantry

>>33844272
Is it Army Airborne?

>>33844606
What's the largest deployment of actual usmc infantry ever?

All 5 of them?

>>33844618
yeah i mean we literally solo'd japan but ok bud

>>33844606

You have a fucked definition of large scale. If you're talking about large scale ops, you should be talking about force structure and not total size.

>>33844626
>we literally solo'd japan

no, we didn't

>>33844606
> general purpose infantry

In Iraq and Afghan the RM saw a hell of a lot of combat and were used as general purpose infantry.
Your idea of 'large scale operation' is relevant only to the overall size of deployable forces, hence why for the UK, 8000 marines deployed is a large scale operation.

>>33844577
>>33844618

Kill yourselves.

>>33844624
Just because you cant count past the number of fingers you have, Cletus...

>>33844632
Listen in all seriousness im not saying the RM arent bad ass dudes but they have a different mission than the USMC. RM are more comparable to us army rangers.

>>33844637
But mum, he started it
>>33844644
Fair enough mate, dont worry Im just winding you lads up.

>>33844647

USMC is basically a stand alone military under direct control of the commander and chief. That's why they combine the navy, army , and AF into one and have all of the combat elements from each branch. They aren't all elite super commando's but they are "the jack of all trades" and the best trained general purpose infantry.

>>33844641
I'm not even american but come the fuck on, how can you even compare the Royal Marines and the USMC?
RM's are a highly trained and well equiped small force used for small specialized operations, the USMC itself is bigger than most militaries in the world with hundreds of thousands of Marines and fucking helos, tanks, jets and shit.
apples and oranges

>>33844553
A great deal of the "Marines" legendary exploits in WWI were misattributed to them, having been done by Army units. Reporters then were just as retarded they are now.

Also the entire Devil Dog/Teufel Hund appellation is historically and grammatically inaccurate and came, again, from US newspapers. The term that would have been used by Germans would have been "Teufelshunde" — one word with a connecting 's'. German makes compound words into singular words. Thus the word Rindfleischetikettierungsueberwachungsaufgabenuebertragungsgesetz, which means in one word "law delegating beef label monitoring." Try again.

Lastly, the adjective "gung ho" from "gōng hé", means "work" and "together".

>It was popularized by then Major, alter General Evans Carlson who was trying to instill the Marines with the same dedication to a common goal he had seen in Chinese peasants.

Your entire organization is a meme.

>>33844675

This.

Also in the end UK and US are allies and we should come together as brothers for our mutual hatred of sand gooks and BTFO of all of them

>>33844675
Because OPs original question was not magnitude of force, but the eliteness of that force. If eliteness was measured purely by numbers of boots and tonnage of equipment, the US or China would be the most 'elite' militaries.

>>33844568
Britcuck? Sorry.

The senior service is telling to to sit down and go play nice with the swabbies. You're just mad because we got an HBO special before you did.

Here, I'll make it up to you. You can have some of my old TA50 and all our old equipment while you jack it in a portashitter at 29 stumps and tell yourself you didn't make a bad life choice.

Try not to get any blue juice on you.

>>33844691

I didnt ask who is the most elite special force with the best training. im asking who is the most elite,and capable force. and by that i mean on the scale of armies, not small operations.

if we are talking about who is the best SF id have to put my money on SAS or seal team 6

>>33844710
edit: oops..."telling you to"

>Damn, it's hard to type one handed while stroking the magnificence of my jump wings and DD214.

yeah marines are the best no one could stand up to them

>>33844272
>75th Ranger Regiment

>>33846021
they are special forces and most of what they do isnt general infantry. they raid airfields and shit

>>33846070
Special Forces is special forces. 75th is SOF

>>33844644

Honestly, the USMC is more comparable to the entire UK armed forces in terms of personnel numbers and capabilities.
