The level of professionalism, fitness and capability in the USMC is way above and beyond any other service  Ahahahahaha, I'm going to assume that's a joke because it's the funniest thing I've heard all week. You mean like the surge in 2007 when the Army had to go back in and restore order to "certain" parts of Baghdad? Or when my former Division handed Fallujah to 1st Marine Division on a silver platter and they let it go to shit? Damn, that consistent professionalism and capability is beyond me, alright!  I'm white, don't be white in the U.S. Army, you are the minority and they will make sure you pay for it  Making a really good case for yourself by sounding like a bitter white boi, totally not deflection from someone that couldn't even make it more than one tour. I'll let you in on a little secret as someone that's been in for well over a decade and has hopped around a lot, there's practically no difference between the Marines and the Army, at least in normal infantry. Normal line infantry is normal line infantry(for that matter there's basically no difference between being airborne and leg for example, legs use their legs and airborne drop out of an aircraft and then use their fucking legs), and every branch has their good and bad members, I've seen some shitty ass Army members and some good goddamned Marines, just as I've seen the reverse. The only time there's a deserved inherent level of respect is if you make it to SOF, though it's funny that Army SOF has a much more solid, more consistent track record than, say, SEALs or MARSOC, huh, the former of which is plagued by egotistical bullshit and stupid mistakes in its modern incarnation, and the latter of which is the result of Marine brass getting butthurt they weren't getting in on SOF and ended up having the rockiest fucking start possible and stepping on everyone's toes. t. former 82nd Airborne, now 75th Ranger, white as fuck skin
