Nounmarine corps (plural: marine corps; adjective: marine)
SynonymsFrom Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Marines from the English adjective marine, meaning of the sea, via French marin(e), of the sea from Latin marinus ("maritime"), are military forces similar to the army. Historically the marine forces or marine corps are infantry forces that are part of the country's navy. However, in some countries the marine force or marine corps are under independent command. Tasks undertaken by marines have included providing security in a warship while at sea, reflecting the pressed nature of the ships' company and the risk of mutiny. Other tasks would include boarding of vessels during combat or capture of prize ships and providing manpower for raiding ashore in support of the naval objectives. Marine elements would also contribute to the campaign ashore, in support of the military objective. With the industrialization of warfare in the 20th Century the scale of landing operations increased, and brought with it an increased likelihood of opposition, and a need for co-ordination of various military elements. Marine forces evolved to specialize in the skills and capabilities required for amphibious warfare. From Wikipedia under the

The thing I'm wondering about is what you said about getting out due to injuries... did you recieve a Medical Discharge?? If you did, then you might not be able to get back into the service. If you got a DD214 Form, you need to review it and make sure you're even eligible to re-enter service. If you can't figure it out, contact your local recruiters office and give them the whole story about your situation, they'll be able to answer your questions better than anybody here on Yahoo.

Q. I recently found out i am getting seperated from the marines for multiple problems, including a personality disorder. What are my chances of getting benefits if I apply for them, and since the marine corps caused this, what are my chances of getting the classification changed from general, under honorable, to straight honorable? Asked by Lcpl Marine - Thu Aug 14 12:25:48 2008 - - 9 Answers - 0 Comments A. You might after some years get the General removed but I doubt it will ever be changed to Honorable. All you can do is try for the benefits, but you will have to prove the USMC service caused these prob and they were not just hiding.
