Description (Specifications)
Once a person is enlisted into the Imperial Marines and has passed basic training, that person will have the rank of Marine.
Certain Mercenary units also use this rank. The rank is also used, informally, by some Pirates and Criminals but is then just another name for Ship's Troops.
- The equivalent rank in the Imperial Navy is Spacehand Apprentice.
- The equivalent rank in the Imperial Army (Ground Force Command) is Private.
History & Background (Dossier)
The name Marine is a simple derivation from the descriptive term "A soldier in the Marine Corps". The "Marine Corps" in this description was, however, one serving pre-space wet-navies (the "Marine" being another name for "Sea") where those troops conducted "Expeditionary" and "Amphibious" operations. With the move into space, the "Amphibious" part of the term passed elsewhere.
The term, in the Imperial Marines, was listed in the documents establishing that Corps granted by Cleon I in the year 0.
