I have a question the men/women on FR who served in the USMC.Isn’t it technically incorrect to say “I was in the Marines”? I thought it was supposed to be “I was in the Marine Corps”.I was reading in a Marine Corps magazine where a Marine said that he was “in the Marines”and his CO quickly corrected him.I was just wondering.
PS; The CO said to this Marine that someone in the Army would not say “I was in the soldiers”.
