If you look at WWII, the Pacific, the Army losses in the Pacific were about the same as the Navy and Marine losses in the entire War, the Army also conducted the vast majority of beach landings and continued their use of code talkers that they had adopted during WWI and also used in Africa and in the European theater.

You’d think the Left would be on board since we defeated the Fascists. Like that one political ad that referred to the men who landed on Normandy as the original “Antifa”.

Harry S Truman's claim that the USMC had a "propaganda machine that was almost equal to Stalin's" was not completely without merit.
