Marines are kinda unique when it comes to an armed service. The “every Marine is a rifleman” idea is one bit. Even the rear echelon paper pushers go to the range every day. And they do maneuvers just like anyone else. Same goes for pilots like me. And yes, I know the old canard about Marine pilots being aviators, not pilots. I’ve run into some really old Marines that hold to that. Some of them became Cowboys. Did I mention we had a lot of characters in the Cowboys?
