    Well, they often enjoy eating a variety of crayons, for one?

    USMC is an independent branch, but does serve under the Navy. They used to be completely independent, until they were placed under the Navy in 1834.

    Different responsibilities, roles, training, structure, culture, etc… but they still report to the secretary of the Navy.

    I wanna know what Navy Seals eat

      Don’t they use Marines to man the brig on ships?

      Not sure where I heard that, so could totally be talking out my ass here.

        Historically, yes. The Marines were responsible for discipline on the ship, including arresting sailors, guarding the officers, and manning the brig.
