United States Marine Corps

The United States Marine Corps (USMC) is a branch of the United States Armed Forces and department of the United States Navy. It is responsible for providing force projection from the sea. They are a featured faction in a significant number of Battlefield games.

Battlefield 1942[]

The US Marines appears in Battlefield 1942 at a later patch, replacing the US Army in the Pacific theater. The USMC engage against the Imperial Japanese Navy for control of islands across the pacific theater.

Engagements[]

VS Team	Map
Imperial Japanese Navy	Wake Island Invasion of the Philippines Coral Sea Midway Guadalcanal Iwo Jima

Kits[]

The USMC kits in Battlefield 1942 are almost identical to their Army counterparts with the exception of being issued the M1 Garand for the Engineer kit.

The US Marines have green camouflaged helmets (excluding the Medic) and jackets, with a pouch on their left breast; olive drab trousers with pouches on their upper thighs, puttees and black boots. Webbing consist of a brown leather pouches and a pistol holder attached to an unsupported belt. All marines carry backpacks with the words "USMC" and the marine emblem below it, making it slightly harder to distinguish between different classes, although the Scout and Medic have the identifiable foliage and radio set, and red cross emblazoned helmet, respectively. Engineers carry a shovel attached to their backpack.

The USMC soldiers and equipment have two versions of camouflage depending on the theater of combat:

The Desert camouflage is used on maps against the MEC.
The Woodland camouflage is used on maps against the PLA, as well as on all Armored Fury maps.

Battlefield 1943[]

"First formed in 1775 during the American Revolution, the Marines have been a mainstay of the US Armed Forces ever since. Securing their popular reputation as an invaluable asset to the US Military, the iconic image of Marines raising the flag at Iwo Jima tells the tale of their bravery. Join their forces and command a sturdy Sherman on the battlefield!"

— Official Website Description

In Battlefield 1943, the United States Marine Corps is one of the two factions, fighting against the Imperial Japanese Navy on every map. They seem to use dark green to represent themselves, as their uniforms, vehicles and even some of their weapons are dark green, as opposed to the IJN's beige-colored uniforms.

Battlefield 3[]

Singeplayer[]

In Battlefield 3, the United States Marine Corps is the main protagonist's faction. The player controls Marine Staff Sergeant Henry Blackburn of Misfit Squad, in the single-player campaign. He is controlled in most singleplayer missions, in an effort against the Iranian People's Liberation and Resistance, in the year 2014. They eventually come into a quick skirmish with the Russian Paratroop, the VDV, in the mission Rock and a Hard Place.

Within the campaign they also control another Marine, but in the 1st Tank Battalion. His name is Jonathan Miller and is playable in two missions of the single-player missions. Within both of these missions, he is on his way to assist Misfit within their task in the heart of Tehran. He fights only the PLR faction in these segments.

Battlefield 4[]

Singeplayer[]

In Battlefield 4, the United States Marine Corps is the main protagonist's faction, and the player controls Marine Sergeant Daniel Recker of Tombstone Squad in the single-player campaign.

Notable Personnel[]

Engagements[]

Versus	Level
People's Liberation Army	Shanghai South China Sea Singapore Kunlun Mountains Suez
Russian Ground Forces	Baku Tashgar

In South China Sea, the USMC fights off invading PLA troops trying to board the USS Valkyrie. After Tombstone escapes the burning USS Titan and re-enters the Valkyrie, Tombstone then fights its way up to the flight deck with the help of the Marines on board.

In Singapore, the USMC launch an amphibious assault on Singapore in order to destroy a PLA-held airport which was going to be used to launch air attacks on the surviving Seventh Fleet.

In Tashgar, the USMC engages the Russian Ground Force. It is hinted that the RGF have the upper hand in the fight as the USMC has been pushed out of the airport in new town to old town. The RGF also have SAM sites under a dam in the area. With the assistance of Tombstone, the USMC manages to take down missile sites and regain air superiority. To thank Tombstone, Major Greenland sends them back to the USS Valkyrie in Suez Canal, Egypt.

Classes[]

During the campaign, Marines outside of Tombstone are represented by their multiplayer models, with and without alterations. The most common skin to appear is the Assault, sometimes with slight modifications. The Engineer also appears, with no modification, and the Support skin appears in Tashgar. Finally, the Recon skin makes two appearances -- in Singapore as part of Anvil 2, and in Tashgar where Molina uses its model with no facewrap. The Marines use either an M16A4 with no attachments or an M4 with a red dot sight.

In multiplayer, the United States Marine Corps fights against both the People's Liberation Army and the Russian Ground Force. The USMC is featured as one of the default factions on most maps, the exceptions being Golmud Railway, Rogue Transmission and Lancang Dam, where the RGF and PLA are engaging each other instead. The USMC is featured by default in every expansion, fighting the PLA in China Rising, Naval Strike, and Dragon's Teeth, and the RGF in Second Assault, Final Stand, and Night Operations.

Due to the choice of factions on a map being up to the server operator, the USMC can appear on any map against any other faction, including the USMC itself, if the server owner so wishes.

Soldier Camouflages[]

By default, Marines in multiplayer are equipped with OEF-CP camouflage, but can unlock faction specific camouflages from Battlepacks, such as UCP or MAPRAT. Camouflages like Splinter and Fire Starter receive a unique scheme for the USMC when equipped.

The following are the camouflages exclusive to the USMC in Battlefield 4:

Camouflage	Intel	Requirements
Default (OEF-CP)	Standard issue camouflage produced by the US Department of Defense (DOD) for issue in Afghanistan to USMC and other ISAF forces.	Unlocked By Default
MARPAT Desert	Marine Pattern digital camouflage designed by computers to blend in more effectively than organic designs. This is the desert variation.	Battlepack Item

Default kits[]

The following loadouts shown below are the kit defaults for the USMC in Battlefield 4's multiplayer mode. Unlike Battlefield 3, there are no asymmetric starting weapons (and thus no faction-specific weaponry), and the starting gear and weapons are shared across all three factions, similar to Bad Company 2.

Battlefield V[]

Main article: United States#Battlefield V

The United States Marine Corps makes a minor named appearance in Battlefield V as part of the United States Armed Forces multiplayer faction added with War in the Pacific. Certain vehicles are marked with USMC designations, implying the Marines comprise some portion of the faction personnel, along with the United States Army and United States Navy.

Battlefield 2042[]

The US Marines appear in Battlefield 2042 opposing the Russian Ground Forces, fighting them across the Asian continent, Antartica, and French Guinea.

Weapons (used by AI Bots)[]

Generally speaking, the USMC AI bots (in All-Out War Maps and Solo/Co-op play) will use a mixture of US and European made equipment and weaponry with futuristic aesthetics. Generally, their uniforms are a solid green color.

Vehicles[]

The USMC provides heavier equipment to assist its no-pat task force, who must bring in their own lighter equipment such as the MAV, EBAA Wildcat, MD540 Nightbird, LATV4 Recon, and EBLC-Ram.

Battlefield Portal[]

In Battlefield 1942 portion of Portal, the USMC are a part of the Allies and fights the German Army in the Battle of the Bulge as the default setting.

In the Battlefield: Bad Company 2 and Battlefield 3 portions of Portal, the United States Marine Corps fights the Russian Ground Forces in the remastered maps of the respective games for the default settings.

Vehicles (BC2)[]

The USMC replaces the US Army of the original game; despite this, they retain the same vehicles.

Vehicles (BF3)[]

The USMC in the Battlefield 3 section largely remains the same as the original game with the exception of its Transport Helicopter being the UH-60 and Attack Helicopter being the AH-64.

Trivia[]

Battlefield Vietnam[]

One of the selectable soldier models is identical to one of the U.S. Army.

Battlefield 2[]

Very early in Battlefield 2 (probably Alpha), the USMC looked very different & their voices were completely different as seen in this video.
The victory theme for the USMC and United States Navy SEALs is a rendition of the Star-Spangled Banner, the United States national anthem.

Battlefield: Bad Company 2[]

In the campaign of Battlefield: Bad Company 2, HMMWVs belonging to the USMC are actually marked "U.S. Army". This is most likely due to the same vehicle/kit models being used for both the Army and Marine forces in the game.

Battlefield 3[]

In the Battlefield 3 Beta, the assault class Marine was Caucasian, however, in the retail game he is African American. The Support Class was also originally Caucasian, however in the game the Support Class Marine looks Hispanic.

Certain entries on Battlelog refer to the multiplayer force as the US Army, instead of the Marines.

The USMC in Battlefield 3 are always the attackers in Rush and Squad Rush on every map.

The USMC in Battlefield 3 first-person model is the same as Blackburn's, despite their 3rd person appearance all having different gloves (with the exception of the Assault).

There was a graphical issue with the American Assault kit, as the Marine is African American in third person but he appeared Caucasian in first person view due to the skin tone of his arms. This was fixed in a later patch.

Battlefield 4[]

The Assault's outfit appears to be the standard Battle Dress Uniform at the time of the events of Battlefield 4, as it is worn by numerous Marines, such as Major Greenland and SSgt. Dunn (albeit with his own tigerstripe replacing the MultiCam).
