Its not really like the US Marine corp. They have everything they need. I'd say its more like the Royal Commando's but there training does not involve all commando thing. We still have our own Dutch Commando's. But thats not the Dutch Marines.

Good to know, but keep in mind this is for when the Army faction is done we first have to complete that before we can move on to the next thing.

But that doesnt mean you cant start on a community map

Show us you got the skills and ill send you a sketch i made with my l33t mspaint skills for a beach assault /jungle map.
