Once upon a time the Marine Corp was a part of the Department of the Navy, so that would make me a cousins or half brothers or something. I salute all the past and especially present day Marines for all the sacrifices so that I can sleep good at night.

Click this link...
http://www.defenselink.mil/pubs/dod1...iles/frame.htm ...and then select Marine Corps on the left frame. It says Department of the Navy. I've never heard of the Department of the Marine Corps. Does the Commandant of the Marine Corps report to the Secretary of the Navy, or the Chief of Naval Operations?

James I may be mistaken but I heard a couple of years ago the Marines split away from the Navy, I guess I should stop believing everything I heard and do some of my own research.

I'm active duty in the Navy right now, and I will absolutely, positively confirm reports that the Marines are still part of the Navy. I was a Seabee, worked with them everyday. Now I'm in a commissioning program with sailors and Marines.
I've never seen a finer group. What the Marines do is absolutely amazing. We are all very fortunate to have them. Let's also remember the sacrifices they make everyday. I hope they all come home. Semper Fi and Happy Birthday!

I just got back from our local Veteran's Day ceremony and I asked an E9 Marine. He said that the Commandant of the Marine Corps reports to the Secretary of the Navy and that USN is on his check.
I (We) should honor/salute all services BTW, today is also the day that WW I ended.
