If you want to see a great example of Marines storming something, watch “The Wind and the Lion” from 1975. They double-time march from the ship directly to a Sultan’s palace and storm it. Awesome scene. The clip used to be on YouTube, but it got pulled. :-((

Tell the Army to take an enemy airfield.They’ll get it,take them a week or so.
Tell the Marines to take an enemy airfield.They’ll have it in 3 hours.Might be 3000 dead and wounded Marines on the ground-but you’ll have the airfield.

I really liked the riding in that movie. Whoever made the movie really loved horses.
