On this web page, I will try to provide a vision of the Marine
Corps; Past, Present and Future...
I will describe how the Marine Corps will meet the global security challenges of today and tomorrow, from peacetime military operations to war.
Despite significant changes in the challenges to our national security, America's fundamental national security goals remain unchanged. They are:
To protect the safety of the nation, its citizens and way of life...
To advance the welfare of our people by contributing to peace and freedom...
For six cents of every Defense dollar, the Marine Corps provides:
11% of active U.S. Forces
20% of active divisions
14% of tactical aircraft capability
Headquarters, Marine Corps.
The forces are comprised of headquarters, air, ground and support units.
The headquarters unit of a force is composed of the commander's staff.
The air unit, or Marine Aircraft Wing,
composes the aviation combat element.
The ground unit, or Marine Division,
composes the ground combat element.
The support unit, or Force Service Support Group,
composes the combat support element.
