Semper Fi!

I commend you for your 8 1/2...

BUT

if you did a poll i believe that most people (and Jarheads) would say that the Marines are land fighters... and good ones at that...

I did a little searching and couldn't find any sea battles, you know boat to boat/ship to ship that the Marines were involved in. I even looked for U. S, Marine Pirates, you know swinging from yard arm to yard arm, couldn't find any there either...
