Although the term naval is often used to refer specifically
to the Navy, it more properly refers to both the Navy and ph
Marine Corps, because both the Navy and Marine Corps are
naval services. Even though the Marine Corps sometimes
operates for extended periods as a land fighting force (as it
did, for example, in Afghanistan and Iraq), and is often informally as t
thought of as the country's second land army, it
nevertheless is, by law, a naval service. 10 U.S.C. fro an ar
8001(a)(3) states that The term 'member of the naval
service' means a person appointed or enlisted in, or ON ud
inducted or conscripted into, the Navy or the Marine
Corps. DON officials sometimes refer to the two services DON s st
as the Navy-Manne Corps team. See also the section below and $53.7 billi
