Who's better? Army or Marines?

[Ray Ray 3,566]

Just curious, which branch is better and why?

[Socom 19]

Marines = smarter, army = dummies and lowest asvab scores, navy = best at least you come out with a job skill.

Who has led us into every single war we have been in? There is your answer...Marines

[DevsAdvocate 112]

Depends on the mission. The Marines are typically a self contained fighting unit, with their own organic air assets, armor, and artillery. However, their numbers are few and can only control/capture a limited number of territory. This is why Marines tend to be very "tip of the spear", you can deploy them rapidly.

 

The Army is a larger force designed to fight for the duration, with seemingly endless assets.

Gibbs was a Marine, so I'm going with Marines.

When I went to take the ASVAB there was a candidate there for Army who was all happy and excited that he scored a 32.

I was going for Navy, scored a 94. The only questions that I suspect screwed me up were math ones which I'm terrible at.

Ray, I can't believe you asked this question, you tryin to stir things up. Hahaha

[SW9racer 262]

My grandfather was in the Army, my father in the Navy, so I am going to say the USAF.

Like kicking dirt in the face of all others who made the ultimate sacrafice

Better for what?

To join?

To get training useful in civilian future?

To get training to become a warrior?

To get shot?

To get money for college?

To be most useful while serving your country?

To get through service without risk?

Army Airborne

[johnp 45]

Marines are the show ponies of the military, prettiest uniforms, they march perfectly inline, and shine their shoes. But out of uniform they are the biggest shitbags I have ever encountered.

 

ARMY

Nope never did and I can still make my opinion known. I can hide behind 150 years of service if i wanted to.

But unlike you I have no need to make excuses for a post.

Merry Christmas.

Ahem: http://www.defensemedianetwork.com/stories/air-force-combat-controllers-at-war-afghanistan-2001/

First boots on the ground in Afghanistan were Army and ... Air Force.

[bry@n 195]

Never cared. Personally I chose the army because the basic training was less time. L

[silverado427 10,731]

Army here. But I have the UTMOST RESPECT for any man or women who steps up to the plate.

[heaterbob 53]

since they ended "don't ask don't tell" you should go in and find out.

Merry Christmas to you too, and many more.

Personal choice. What ever happened to Don"t speak ill of other branches?......Any way ARMY.

bro, there have been arguments on bases on which branch is better for decades. It's good to boast about your branch, and bash to other ones. But in the end, there is a common ground of respect and appreciation.

[Motofan 10]

God Bless America and and anyone who ever put on a uniform in defense of our flag and what it stands for.

 

At the time I chose Air Force....let the zoomie and chair force jokes fly !!!

 

Love ya's !! and Merry Christmas.

[HavocMan 13]

ARMY.

 

It's a much larger, more diverse organization with greater opportunities.

Want to be a surgeon? Check.

A Door Kickin' Face Shooter? Check.

Office Clerk? Check.

Helicopter pilot? Check.

Social Worker? Check.

Diesel Mechanic? Check.

 

.....the list is nearly limitless.

 

It is a society within a society...but I suppose you could say that of the entire military.

If I were going to enlist today, I would definitely go with the Marines--I think they are the toughest and most badass.

I think that if you want the best odds of staying alive and/or maximizing comfort: USAF or Navy (especially if you can get yourself deployed onboard a carrier).

My grandfather was in the Army, my father in the Navy, so I am going to say the USAF.

Air Force was formed 18-Sep-1947 and we have not won a war since.
