Both very robust institutions

Army's Ft. Benning Infantry School and the Marine Corps SoI

Having that solid foundation in small unit tactics and infantry combat makes a world of difference when you are trying to make a special operator

It's like building a house

Solid foundations and fundamentals

The navy and air force often struggle with this as their basic trainings have no such thing

Sailors and airmen fire a gun like once

And someone holds it for them

In basic/boot

Marines and soldiers have to learn how to fire and maneuver from the start

Damn

Sounds bitchy of their part

Which creates problems in af and usn special ops

Their new operator recruits are basically building all these cool skills without solid fundamentals

Building a house without laying foundation downn

Now it can work out sure, but it's never going to be as good as how the army and the corps treats it

Small food for thought there

The US has the toughest basic training in the world for conventional forces

That helps more than people think

It's not even that hard

But all the stuff you can get out of it does build

But it makes a difference at thr same time

Yes

Having that mindset instilled from day one is immensely helpful

I don't give the corps much but I'll give them this

Their pogs are way better than our pogs

They make all non infantrymen go through MCT which is a boneless combat school

But still a combat school nonetheless

Every marine a rifleman and so on

That's honestly one of the best things they do

Yeah

They have my respect on this

But everything seems broken in mc

yes

but their fundamentals are solid

Yeah

that is the difference here

the navy and air force don't have fundamentals

because why would they need to

doesn't make any sense to spend all that time and money doing that
