marine corps and amphibious infantry of the United Kingdom
via Wikipedia infobox
His Majesty's Royal Marines are the United Kingdom's special operations-capable naval infantry force and constitute one of the five fighting arms of the Royal Navy. They provide a company-sized sub-unit to the Special Forces Support Group, personnel for landing craft crews, and personnel for the Royal Navy's military bands. The Corps traces its origins to the "Duke of York and Albany's Maritime Regiment of Foot", formed on 28 October 1664. The first Royal Marines commando unit was formed at Deal, Kent, on 14 February 1942 and was designated "The Royal Marine Commando".
The Royal Marines have served in numerous conflicts but, unlike most British Army regiments, do not carry individual battle honours. Instead, the "Great Globe Itself" was granted by George IV in 1827 in recognition of the Marines' service in engagements across the world. Today, the Corps comprises the United Kingdom Commando Force, the Royal Marines Band Service, the Commando Training Centre, and four reserve units.
