 Flag Precedence: Why the Marine Corps is senior to the Navy 

                    COLUMBUS, Ohio —                                                Anyone who has attended a military event or sat in a briefing where the Service flags are displayed should know that the order of precedence goes from left to right. The National Ensign followed by the Army, Marine Corps, Navy...wait. What? The Marine Corps is senior to the Navy in order of precedence even though it is an underling to the Department of the Navy? Is it because we can do more pull-ups? Run farther? Carry more weight? Have better looking uniforms? No. It’s a little debatable but seems to stem from a litany of historical events.

Iwo was a bloody, 36-day long chapter in the World War II Pacific saga as our brothers fought and died for control of the tiny atoll.

 Why be a Marine

I’d like to tell you about a time when I was on recruiting duty and a young man came into my office seeking to find out about joining the Corps.
