LIFE IN THE MARINE CORPS

BATTLES WELL FOUGHT. A LIFE WELL LIVED.

At all times, Marines conduct themselves in a manner in keeping with the tremendous trust our Nation places in them. But this does not mean Marines spend their entire time in the Corps locked at attention. There is great fulfillment that comes from fighting as a Marine and great personal satisfaction living as one. While training or relaxing on or off base, or while bringing our Nation’s fight to every battlefield in our operating forces, Marines enjoy the way of life they together defend.

 

 

 

 

 

Life on Base

Long after serving in the Corps, it is a Marine's time in uniform that is often considered most meaningful. Between training to fight and fighting to win, Marines experience a unique quality of life on our bases and stations.

LIFE IN THE OPERATING FORCES

There is no greater professional organization than the United States Marine Corps, and in our operating forces, it is our Marines who serve as its professionals.

ONCE A MARINE ALWAYS A MARINE

"Once a Marine, always a Marine." Whether you serve for four years or for 20, those in the USMC proudly wear the title ‘Marine’ for life.

ALWAYS FAITHFUL. ALWAYS A MARINE.

While the battlefields have changed since active duty, the commitment of our Marine Veterans has not. Empowering communities, leading our Nation forward, and advocating on behalf of the Marine Corps, our Marine Veterans continue to find ways to show they are still “Always Faithful.”
