“To Hell with that. Just separate the two and have a Dept. of the Marine Corps!”
To hell with that. Just more useless beurocratic overhead and cost.
Disband all the “departments” and make it a single War Department. Put the Commandant of Marines at its head.
We’d need a unified military uniform. No more of this separate suits for each service nonsense. USMC uniform issue is the best looking and most functional, so it should be it.
Just think of all the extra MAUs and MABs that could be made out of all those Army and Air Force peeps.
Both the US Army and the US Navy have a long history of trying to abolish, destroy, do away with the USMC. Time the tables were turned.
Semper Fi.
“Disband all the departments and make it a single War Department. Put the Commandant of Marines at its head.”
I could go along with that! One giant USMC! (Except all the other pogues would have to go thru Boot Camp!)
