Marines have responded to every conflict our nation has seen, but the Marine Corps’ greatest benefit is its ability to respond to the unforeseeable. No one knows where the next threat will emerge, but every Marine knows its arrival is only a matter of time. The Marine Corps offers the most efficient and effective response option when these unexpected threats surface. It is because the Marine Corps maintains a constant state of readiness that our nation is at all times ready.

DEScriPtiOn OF cOMPanYThe mission of the Navy is to maintain, train and equip combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars, deterring aggression and maintaining freedom of the seas.
Among the seven uniformed services of the Unites States, America’s Navy holds the distinction of being the most multidimensional force serving the nation. Composed of highly specialized communities whose duties often extend beyond the sea, it does far more than meet the overwhelming task of carrying out Naval operations around the globe. It’s there to do a job no one else can do. And to offer the kind of support that often helps enable our other military forces to complete their missions – successfully and efficiently.
