Army Infantry school vs. Boot Camp?
I don’t understand why people assume Marines are better fighters, considering Army infantry combat school+ regular basic is the same as Marine infantry boot. Is it simply the Eagle Globe and Anchor? I mean the Army gets Strykers, Blackhawk choppers and Apache Longbows…and they’re considered inferior? Plus the infantry school is basically the same thing. Is the whole Marines are better mentality simply propoganda?
Sorry “Marine,” but the US Army’s 1 ID led the assault on Fallujah as well. I’m not asking for propaganda
There is no such thing as “marine infantry boot camp”. All Marines go through 13 weeks of boot camp. Infantry Marines then continue on to 8 weeks of infantry training. These are two separate ordeals.
Its not so much the training that matters, its the performance. The Marine Corps has a proven track record of accomplishing more with less. Less men, less equipment, less time, less money and yet they perform better.
