::Unlike the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps has no state or territorial service to a governor. There may be reserve units that fall within a regional command, however, they cannot be called up by the Governor to assist in state emergencies. I doubt this has changed much in 540 years, and it's likely that the "''United Earth Space Corps''" was just an error in the script as "''UNSC Marine Corps''" has been used since 2001. And Sith'ari, I was only mentioning a federal militia akin to the U.S. Army National Guard, Canadian Army Primary Reserve, or British Territorial Army, which vary in-size from area to area. There's no reason to have an individual planetary Marine Corps as it's mission is expeditionary in-nature and goes wherever the Navy does. {{User:CommanderTony/Sig|March 22nd, 2011}} | ::Unlike the U.S. Army, the U.S. Marine Corps has no state or territorial service to a governor.

:::True, though both Sol and Epsilon eridani held their own fleets defending the numerous colonies within them - I doubt that the Home Fleet, for example, would send ships and marines to a far-off star system (though the names and roles of known fleets may suggest that numbered fleets move from system to system to support others). Back to the point - Reach's and Earth's marines are at least different enough to use different uniform and armour systems (while we could have passed the 1-2 transition as a retcon, Reach counters it).-- '''[[User:Forerunner|<font color="blue">Fore</font>]]''[[User talk:Forerunner|<font color="green">run</font>]]''[[Special:Contributions/Forerunner|<font color="red">ner</font>]]''''' 18:55, 22 March 2011 (EDT) | :::True, though both Sol and Epsilon eridani held their own fleets defending the numerous colonies within them - I doubt that the Home Fleet, for example, would send ships and marines to a far-off star system (though the names and roles of known fleets may suggest that numbered fleets move from system to system to support others).

::::Both the United States and British Empire had Atlantic and Pacific fleets with numerous numbered fleets within those commands, therefore, they would each have a corresponding Fleet Marine Force. Oh, and equipment isn't an important factor, looking at deployed Marines in Afghanistan and those in CONUS, you may see differences | ::::Both the United States and British Empire had Atlantic and Pacific fleets with numerous numbered fleets within those commands, therefore, they would each have a corresponding Fleet Marine Force. Oh, and equipment isn't an important factor, looking at deployed Marines in Afghanistan and those in CONUS, you may see differences do to unit importance and other factors. {{User:CommanderTony/Sig|March 22nd, 2011}} | ||
:::In which case, what if UESC simply refers to Earth's militia, and not an independent marine corps?
