About the United States Marine Corps:

The Marine Corps defends the people of the United States at home and abroad. Within every Marine is the willingness to engage and determination to defeat any adversary, and it is this fighting spirit that allows us to fight and win our Nation’s battles.

The mission of the United States Marine Corps is made up of three promises: We make Marines, we win our Nation’s battles, and we develop quality citizens prepared to fight and win battles.

You don’t join the Marines—you become one, forged in the crucible of training aboard our recruit depots on Parris Island, South Carolina, and in San Diego, California, or through the dedication required of officer candidates at Officer Candidates School in Quantico, Virginia. Beyond the physical requirements, aspiring Marines must prove they have the honor, courage, and commitment to face and defeat any obstacle.

Today, more than 180,000 enlisted Marines and 23,000 Marine Officers serve in active duty or reserve forces on bases and in communities around the world, proudly carrying with them the core values of the Marine Corps.

I knew birds were drones. Thanks for confirming it

The best life decision I made as a young man was joining the Marines.

The second best decision was getting out after my 6 years.

Turns out marine ads aren’t just bangers, they could make something that looks like a video game.

The people being evacuated at the beginning are Emma and her two moms.

I was afraid that was going to be stupid. Some of our ads haven't been great recently, but that ended up being pretty awesome. It's just missing the part where we actually say "The Few. The Proud. The Marines." Never change that bit and we're good.

I like how this commercial worked in FD2030 concepts and equipment, really showed how the marine corps is changing

[lordtachanka]

Why can't we get more commercials like this from the other branches?

[Develpup]

Good commercial. This is exactly what needs to be advertised, not Emma

[andrycanz]

I'm 97 years young, my veins are filled with stem cell therapy, I have a chip implant in my brain that enhances my memory, and this is the best recruitment video I have ever seen.

🇺🇸 US Marines 💪🏻 Greetings from your brothers in the Philippines 🇵🇭

[Eidako]

Join the Marines! It's totally like a video game and not standing around like a statue for hours, or scrubbing toilets, or having a stranger scream at you because you folded your underwear wrong.

[xcaliber]

Bring back the statement "The Few. The Proud. The Marines". That really strikes a chord and makes one wanna join The Corps.

When I first saw this commercial on TV I thought it was for a video game. Our worlds going to crazy places 😬

[toastytoast]

Ok, even if this wasn't a recruitment ad, this would've made a sick game trailer, everything was so damn smooth and cool. Love to all the marines protecting us.

[jbunceiii]

So proud of our Marines....thank you all!

[snifey]

i feel like they really want to sell you that the entire landscape of Military has become COD: black ops 2.

[corbacfou]

This is really funny, this commercial look like a trailer for the next COD XD

[vincesablan]

Jung, I spent 15 years as an Army soldier, this is the best recruitment commercial I have ever seen. Army take note and update your stuff. Outstanding job Marines!

Commerical plot: "Protect America outside America"

[hedgehoginacanoe]

How the hell is this more over the top then the satire recruitment ad from helldivers.
