------------------------------------------------------------------------
The primary mission of the Department of the Navy is to protect the
United States, as directed by the President or the Secretary of Defense,
by the effective prosecution of war at sea including, with its Marine
Corps component, the seizure or defense of advanced naval bases; to
support, as required, the forces of all military departments of the
United States; and to maintain freedom of the seas.
The United States Navy was founded on October 13, 1775, when Congress
enacted the first legislation creating the Continental Navy of the
American Revolution. The Department of the Navy and the Office of
Secretary of the Navy were established by act of April 30, 1798 (10
U.S.C. 5011, 5031). For 9 years prior to that date, by act of August 7,
1789 (1 Stat. 49), the conduct of naval affairs was under the Secretary
of War.
The National Security Act Amendments of 1949 provided that the
Department of the Navy be a military department within the Department of
Defense (63 Stat. 578).
The Secretary of the Navy is appointed by the President as the head
of the Department of the Navy and is responsible to the Secretary of
Defense for the operation and efficiency of the Navy (10 U.S.C. 5031).
The organization of the Department of the Navy is reflected in the
organization chart and personnel listing. The Department of the Navy
includes the U.S. Coast Guard when it is operating as a Service in the
Navy.

physical science to investigate the nature and behavior of the ocean
environment in which the Navy operates. They are:
Hydrography--to collect data for the charting of the oceans and to
establish geodetic references for navigation;
Oceanography--to define the characteristics of the water volume for
use in ocean reporting and prediction, and studies of underwater
acoustics, water dynamics, corrosion, and other factors influencing the
performance of naval systems;
Meteorology--to define the characteristics of the atmosphere for use
in weather reporting and prediction, and studies of upper atmosphere
winds and currents, refractive indices for radar performance, and
similar factors;
Astrometry--to determine the position and motions of celestial
bodies required for accurate navigation, operational support, and use in
calculating precise geodetic positions and azimuth references on Earth;
and
Precise Time--to determine, provide, and manage the distribution of
precise time and time interval (frequency), both atomic and

United States Marine Corps
Commandant of the Marine Corps,
Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps, Washington, DC 20380-0001
Phone, 703-614-2344. Internet, http://www.usmc.mil/.
The United States Marine Corps was established on November 10, 1775, by
resolution of the Continental Congress. Marine Corps composition and
functions are detailed in 10 U.S.C. 5063.
The Marine Corps, which is part of the Department of the Navy, is
the smallest of the Nation's combat forces and is the only service
specifically tasked by Congress to be able to fight in the air, on land,
and at sea. Although marines fight in each of these dimensions, they are
primarily a maritime force, inextricably linked with the Navy to move
from the sea to fight on land.
For most of the country's history, integrated Navy-Marine Corps
expeditionary forces have been routinely forward deployed around the
world. The Marine Corps is tasked by law to be ``the most ready when the
Nation is least ready.'' All marines, regardless of speciality, are
fundamentally the same, forged from a common experience in
[[Page 222]]
boot camp or officer training, sharing a common set of values, and
trained as a cohesive air-ground team from the moment they join the
Marine Corps.
The Marine Corps conducts entry-level training for its enlisted
marines at two bases, Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, SC, and
Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, CA. Officer candidates are
evaluated at Officer Candidate School at Marine Corps Combat Development
Command, Quantico, VA.
The Marine Corps has a global perspective which is not focused on
any particular threat. While the primary responsibility for winning wars
lies with the Army, Navy, and Air Force, the Marine Corps wins battles,
ever ready to respond to international ``brush fires.'' Marines train to
be first on the scene to respond to attacks on the United States or its
interests, acts of political violence against Americans abroad, disaster
relief, humanitarian assistance, or evacuation of Americans from foreign
countries. Operating from Navy ships afloat, the Navy-Marine team
provides a unique range of options for the country's leadership. At sea,
these units can operate from a protected sea base, unencumbered by
political constraints often encountered by U.S. forces based in foreign
countries.
At the very basic level, the Marine Corps uses a system of ranks
similar to that of the U.S. Army. Ground units are organized into
squads, platoons, battalions, regiments, divisions, etc., also similar
to the Army. Marine aviation units are organized into squadrons, groups,
and wings, similar to the Air Force and Navy. However, the size, number,
and composition of Marine Corps ground and aviation units differ from
the other services. Expanding on this basic organizational framework,
the Marine Corps employs a versatile and flexible organizational
approach by task organizing its units for deployments and contingencies.
These are called Marine Air Ground Task Forces (MAGTF's), which can
emphasize whatever capability is required to accomplish the mission.
Regardless of size, all MAGTF's share four common elements, which vary
in size and composition according to the mission: Command Element,
Ground Combat Element, Aviation Combat Element, and Combat Service
Support Element. MAGTF's are organized, trained, and equipped to conduct
operations across three dimensions: air, land, and sea. Through a
combination of strategic basing and prepositioning of equipment, global
forward operations, and an ability to rapidly deploy by air and sea,
MAGTF's provide a building block approach to deploying Marine Corps
combat power.
The Marine Corps also has other marines and units that provide
specialized support and capabilities. Marine Security Guards provide
security at each U.S. Embassy around the world. The Marine Corps
Security Force Battalion, headquartered in Norfolk, VA, provides mobile
training teams to support antiterrorism training at naval installations
and maintains Fleet Antiterrorist Security Teams for deployment as
directed by the Chief of Naval Operations. With the advent of the
chemical and biological weapons threat, the Marine Corps has created the
Chemical Biological Incident Response Force, based at Camp Lejeune, NC,
to respond on short notice to chemical or biological incidents
worldwide.
