I have yet to see any Marine wearing a Sailor Suit.

Hi Bill,
USMC's still a part of the U.S. Navy... No???
If yes, then yer issued kit's still a "Sailor Suit".
Don't get me wrong, if I ever wanted an embassy guarded, or more ballast for my bilge, I'd call on a Marine.
However, if I wanted to REALLY go to WAR, I'd have to call on the U. S. Army.
Heck even the Navy, when they want to get-er-done, calls up the "Navy" Seals.
What's the matter, don't they trust you bad-ass Marines with those kinds of missions?
The Marines would be hard pressed to put 200 boots on the ground for more than two weeks at a time.
No manpower. No firepower. No logistics throw weight. No deep command structure. Bunch of glorified policemen.
You Meat Core guys just got a bad case of an overactive esprit gland.
Six weeks on Paris Island. Don't make me laugh. I've seen tougher sorority pledges.
My ADCP had tactical nukes at its disposal.
Go Army,
