The Marines are completely antiquated. In the era of drone warfare, having an entire branch dedicated to amphibious assault is like having a branch just for cavalry. Merge that shit into the Navy. The Marines are kept alive solely by the notoriety of ~~D-Day~~ the Pacific Theater.

D-Day was the Army. You think we would trust something that important to the Marines? They were all if the Pacific anyway.

Pacific theater... they were used by the Airforce to take every chunk of rock large enough to make an airstrip and fuel depot... no matter how many dead Marines it took.
