------------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
[[Page 183]]

Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps, 2 Navy Annex, Washington, DC 20380-1775
Phone, 703-614-1034. Internet, 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.
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. 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.
