There isn’t a combat zone hot enough to scare off a battle-hardened Marine.

The Marines were initially kept under the umbrella of the UPE Army’s command structure, they weren’t officially separated and formed as their own division until the end of the First Tevarin War. The UPE felt that they needed a consolidated special operations force that commanded the best of both the Army and the Navy. Their focus and primary application became planetary invasion. Marine units are specialized to be weapons of warfare, nothing more. They don’t handle diplomatic escorts or pull guard duty, they dust things. When the Imperator doesn’t need them, the Marines sequester themselves to their planet-bases on Corin (Kilian system) and train for the next conflict that will require their services.
Marine-Candidates are selected from the general pool of Army and Navy recruits. The criterion for selection is unknown and inconsistent at best. Some speculate that it is intentional to cement the fact that you don’t apply to be a Marine.
Unlike other UEE forces, Marines do not deploy indiscriminately. An on-duty Marine Reservist either returns to Corin for training or is actively engaged in a combat operation. Marines do not protect convoys, interdict pirates or garrison jump points: they invade planets, strike back at the Vanduul and personally protect the Imperator .
We are ‘The Imperator’s Own.’ The First Responders. The Elite Fighter Pilots. The Shock Troops.
There isn’t a combat zone hot enough to scare off a battle-hardened Marine.
When you’re looking for a challenge that pushes you to your limits, you couldn’t do better than completing the United Empire of Earth’s toughest military training – and earning that coveted Marines symbol.
As a Marine Reservist you’ll be an elite member of a force who combine their civilian jobs with serving as part-time, fully trained troopers. Just like regular Marines, you’ll learn to deploy your skills in any location, environment and terrain.
You’ll have the chance to specialize in space combat, planetary assault, hostile alien interdiction, close quarters combat, signals, intelligence, special operations and other skills turning you into one of the most elite sources of extra military strength in the galaxy.

The United Empire of Earth Marines Reserve (UEEMR) is the volunteer reserve force used to augment the regular Marines in times of war or crisis. The Marines Reserve consists of those regular Marines who do not wish to completely end their service to the UEE after their active duty oath has been obligated. A Marine discharged with honor into the civilian workforce can request to return to the Marines Reserve. A limited number of separating active service veterans with outstanding performance records from the Navy and Army are also invited to Marine training to fill up Reserve slots. All the volunteers within the UEEMR must pass through the same rigorous course as the regular duty Marines. Additionally, unlike other branches of the UEE military that are discharged after service, all Marines are automatically transferred to inactive reserve status for a period of [REDACTED] years.

The Marines Ethos has three components:
For the elite men and women of the UEE Marines it’s more than a state of mind, it’s a way of life.
The UEE Marines may be famed for its assault troops, but this branch of the United Empire of Earth also has a flight wing, including fighter pilots who fly such state-of-the-art fighters as the Anvil Aerospace Hornet, Aegis Dynamics Vanguard and Sabre. The Marines also operate their own capital ships, drop ships, etc., as they conduct missions completely separate from UEE Navy and Army forces. Qualifying to be a Marine pilot means meeting not just a series of strict standards to get into the Marines itself, but the even higher standards befitting an elite member of the military. Once a candidate has met the requirement for a pilot officer, he or she must undergo extensive specialized and classified flight training.
UEE Marine troopers, are organized, trained and equipped to deploy for highly classified missions in the far reaches of space as directed by the Legatus Marinuum. The elite Marine Combat Battalions are made up of personnel uniquely capable of Special Operations against any type of threat in any type of environment. The training to become a “Star Marine” is, according to the Marines, “the most extensive and arduous training in all of the UEE military.”
