Naval Infantry
This is only one of the many terms sailors use in reference to the US Marines. The Marines are actually part of the Navy. They are the land fighting branch of an otherwise sea born force. Marines think of themselves as a separate branch of the military all together, but they are part of the Navy.
I have joked about Marines a good deal, but I am glad they are around. They are a proud, strong, historical fighting force. When it is time to put boots on the ground there are not many other s out there that can do so with as much effectiveness as the USMC.
Marines joke about sailors and sailors joke about Marines, but they both agree on one thing. They are both glad to have the other guy.
SEMPER FIDELIS
