The Marine training of World War 2 is the same as the training of today except now we have more modern armament and computerized equipment the Marine recruits have to learn about now. It has always been the toughest boot camp of all the military forces and all Marines, even nurses, have to have basic weapons training, even in World War 2.

What exactly is the difference in function between the US Army and US Marine Corps?

There is a world of difference as far as training and how things are run. The Marines are more specialized for combat. All Marines regardless of occupation receive infantry training. If you want an exact answer, you should call a recruiter. They could probably give you an awesome answer to this question.Taken from Yahoo Answers:The Army has a very different function than the Marines, and a wider mission during wartime. The first difference is between the missions of the respective forces. The Marines are a relatively small branch of the Navy. Their mission is primarily to conduct initial combat operations and establish a small foothold from which they can operate until larger forces arrive. The Army's mission is much bigger. Along with establishing a foothold, they also expand the foothold into entire theaters of operations. The Marines and the Army fight battles.

What counrty has the best Marine Corps?

To base this answer off an objective metric, such as funding, manpower and defined minimum capabilities, the Marine Corps of the United States would hold the title. No other nation maintains a 'force in readiness' by forward deploying a rapid response force in such size and capability within the spectrum of combat. Funding allocated for equipment, training and welfare are second to none. The United States also maintains the largest standing Marine Corps, with over 180,000 active duty Marines.
