The Marine Corps (USMC Aviation officially began on 22 May 1912) has been a component of the U.S. Department of the Navy since 30 June 1834, working closely with naval forces. The USMC operates installations on land and aboard sea-going amphibious warfare ships around the world.
All Marine pilots and flight officers are trained and qualified as naval aviators or naval flight officers by the Navy.

Most training is aircraft specific. The Navy guy might be able to get it off the ground and fly it but he will not know all the ins and outs of using it for a mission. If you need a Marine copter for a Navy mission you get a Marine pilot to fly it. And vice versa.

Not sure that you really need to worry about any of this, as you language skills indicate you will never be an aviator to begin with .... but good luck

No. You don't just jump between aircraft types. You have to become qualified on each.
