The one thing that Rangers and SEALs have in common is that they both are almost good enough to be Marines.

Heh.

Semper Fi!

"almost good enough to be Marines"

180,000 bad ass men.

I've seen Marines do amazing things in my years in the Navy. The discipline is unmatched. Man for man, they shoot better than any other military force in the world.

And, they are the type of men who clean out Falluja or Beruit or some other hell hole where nobody else wants to go.

If the US ever sets foot in Mosul again, it will be under the USMC banner.

True...true, but who they call when their butts are caught between the rock and the hard place? That's right, The USAF ParaRescue.

'Air Force Pararescue is the only United States Department of Defense elite combat force specifically organized, trained, equipped, and postured to conduct full spectrum personnel recovery to include both conventional and unconventional combat rescue operations. Pararescue is the nation’s force of choice to execute the most perilous, demanding, and extreme rescue missions anytime, anywhere across the globe.' https://www.pararescue.com/
