Marine History
A marine corps (from French "corps de
marine") is a branch of a nation's armed forces incorporating Marines, intended to be capable of mounting
amphibious assaults using
infantry, armour, aircraft, and watercraft. The role of a Marine Corps can differ between nations. Many countries,
including Spain, Germany, France and Russia describe these combatant groups
as "naval infantry."
In modern warfare, Marines are usually elite, highly mobile troops, and are used in situations that do not always
involve naval elements. For example, the United States Marine Corps, the largest in the world, is often used as a spearhead for major military offensives or as a stopgap when an emergency
military situation breaks out, performing critical military operations until more permanent forces arrive. Historically, Marines
were part of the navy and served onboard warships. They assisted the crew in battles,
boarded enemy ships, conducted small coastal raids, and protected the officers from mutiny by the crew. Eventually they have
become the primary landing force. The word "Marine" means
Navy in many European languages such as French, German and Dutch.
The marines get their military recruits through a person known as an marine recruiter. Recruiters are found in
all branches of the military etc., army, navy, marines, national guard, air force, coast guard and reserves. It would not be
possible to have a volunteer military without marine recruiters.
