Be a duty expert on the marine corps

The Marine Corps is actually the department of the Navy. The Marine Corps uses naval terms, such as "head" for bathroom, "bulkhead" for wall, "deck" for the ground, "scuttlebutt" for gossip, "gee-dunk" for candy.

The Marine Corps emblem (the Eagle, Globe and Anchor) was adopted in 1868. The globe and anchor signify worldwide service and sea traditions. The spread eagle represents the nation itself. The motto is clenched in the beak of the bird.

The bloodstripe is the red stripe on the side on NCO and officers uniform. The first bloodstripe seen on Marine uniforms in 1796. The stripe represents the blood shed by Marines at the Battle of Chapaultepec in the war with Mexico in 1846
