22. Sorry, "Combat Service Support" is a Marine Corps-only designation We're also the only branch that puts the crossed rifles on every person's uniform bullshit and sends everyone (male or female) to infantry training regardless of their job More bullshit. I was just surprised that the Army doesn't offer a combat badge for non-infantry personnel (pinboy39er upthread says they have recently added one).
No it isn't. Combat Service Support units have been around since before WWII.
Yeah, this 'cruit is all FUBAR'ed. As far as crossed rifles are concerned, yes , ....Marine Corp enlisted rank gains the BB guns at Lance Corporal. That's for everyone, except First Sergeant (E-8) is a Diamond (same as the Army) and Master Gunny (E-9) is a bursting bomb. If you're referring to weapons qual, not unless you shoot Expert, dumbass.
No, everyone does not go through Infantry Training Regiment/Infantry Training School/School Of Infantry, or whatever they have changed it to now. You may go through an indoc program, but that's not the same thing.
Besides wannabe Jarhead, what do you care? You post on a board full of mumbling, retarded Marxists.
No shit......
