The marines are amphibious. Sh what were they doing in Beruit besides getting themselves blown up?

Air Force-all the planes? I dunno. When the A-10 Warthog was on the chopping block it was suggested the Marines could take over. During the Mayaguez incident the marines had to use AF helicopters. The captain ordered the AF pilot where too land and the pilot-a buck sergeant-told him to go f himself.

Nope. Air Force did not use enlisted pilots.
