History of the Marine Infantry (1675-1919)


The naval infantry troops was as a generic
compound formation from the two Armed
forces of the navy and army. This was
expressed in the fact that they are
weisungsmäßig and belonged to the Navy,
but the operational requirements, and
even the grade designations came from
the army.
