Marines on the Move!?
Why is it the USMC are picked to hit the hard areas of Afganistan and Iraq? They (24th Mar. Exp. Force) are even fighting the battle right now for the souteren (British held) section of Afganistan?
Why can't the British take care of their own territory?
No whine served with this cheese..just went fishing to see which British or other service wanted to voice how great they are. Hell it's been the Marines fighting the hard fight in ever town so for!
Force Recon Semper Fi!

Why, because the Marines are the best branch of the best military in the world, that's why, but I'm sure you already knew that, and all these other fools just don't want to admit it.
M. A. R. I. N .E. S. This is how you spell the best.

That is what Marines have always done
since Nov 10,1776...
Please I don't want to hear any of this 7 months
deployment...they are an MEU of some 2500
Marines...that are taking the Fight to the Enemy
everytime a New MEU hits the Beaches...
Which at this time and place they seem to be
the only ones doing anything...
We may have Thousands of Troops in Iraq but most
of them that request Care Packages on websites...
The majority are asking for things to keep them
busy because their BORED doing Nothing...
There is NO US ARMY Leadership to be found...
In the MP Battalions...you can't find anyone over
the rank of Sgt outside the wire...
As for the Brits...they think we are still a Colony...
and everyone knows that they always used their Colonial Forces as Cannon Fodder before entering their Forces...

you know what every branch and every unit is picked to do hard things dont act like the marines are the only ones that have to be in the sh*t try being in it for deployments over a year (army). contrary to what you believe they arent the ones in the worst of it and they arent the ones chosen to go in first.. take a look at your history books the last several conflicts that have happend the Armys SF and Rangers were in first
