About the United States Marine Corps:
As the Nation’s forward-deployed force in readiness, the Marine Corps fights around the globe to defend Americans who are both home and abroad. Within every Marine is the willingness to engage and determination to defeat any adversary, and it is this fighting spirit that allows us to fight and win our Nation’s battles. The mission of the United States Marine Corps is made up of three promises: We make Marines, we win our Nation’s battles, and we develop quality citizens prepared to fight and win battles. Marines are forged in the crucible of training aboard our recruit depots on Parris Island, South Carolina, in San Diego, California, or through the dedication required of officer candidates at Officer Candidates School in Quantico, Virginia. Beyond the physical requirements, aspiring Marines must prove they have the honor, courage, and commitment to face and defeat any obstacle. Today, more than 180,000 enlisted Marines and 23,000 Marine Officers serve in active-duty or reserve forces on bases and in communities around the world, proudly carrying with them the core values of the Marine Corps.
