The Marines were once part of the Navy just as the Air Force was part of the Army. All the services have a separate chain of command up through the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs to the President. There is an academy for all the services except for the Marines.
I'm from one of those families where the men are expected to serve in the military before going to college.
I did six years in the Navy because the food was good and they trained me on computers.
My macho brother on the other hand joined the Army for two years and then instead of becoming a reserve, he chose to do a four year stint in the Marines.
Overall, the Marines are much more hardcore gung ho, unless you include the Special Forces types, such as the Navy Seals, etc.

To the best of my knowledge, the Marines are still a part of the US Navy.
Marines are the best, at getting killed. When ever you need a body count, call the USMC.

I did my military service in the amphibious infantry. (not the elite part, just a regular grunt - It was a heavy weapons platoon attached to the company)
All those fucking mortar rounds I had to carry around .. and the reward was a sore back and an ugly beret.

A bunch of the guys I was in the 'corps with jumped ship after 4 or 8 years to go over to the Army. It's much easier to get promoted, they've got a much bigger budget and once a Marine, always a Marine. All the soldiers know you're a Marine at heart and you get a lot of respect from the pogues.
Semper Fi!
