Who's tougher, Marines,Delta Force or Navy Seals?

...I'd say it depends on what job you want accomplished.  If you want things broken and large numbers of people killed, you send in the Marines.  If you need someone taken out quietly, the SEALS may be your choice.  If you have a hostage situation and need the badguys whacked, Delta Force may be the best option.  They're all good at what they do...

Here are a few websites that outline what navy seals go through.

depends what you want to do.  the marines are the toughest guys in the military.  they are killing machines.  they are trained for combat and they aren't given as much equipment.\n\nthe navy is a more technical endeavor.  you will be trained in electronics maybe, or working decks or some such, depending on your post.  but the training and the job won't be as physically demanding.

all of them do. all of them are as equally important as the rest and as under-appreciated. however, the marines are known to be the hardest out there so if absolutely had to pick one i'd say them. first ones in, last ones out.

well. wether the ww2 commandos had double the people or not they would still have more bravory and courage then the marine recruits we have today. they were raised in 2 different times. back then they grew up hunting and so on. now most people grew up playing videogames and peoples mothers yelling at them for having the thought of playing with toy guns... but then again the marine recruits have better training now... but id have to side with the ww2 commandos

SEAL...When I see that word I think of Navy Seal, which makes me think of big, buff guys with shaved heads all sweaty and, oh my!

There was one and only one US Marine killed during Operation Just Cause (Panama Invasion). CPL Garreth C. Isaak, 2nd Marine Division, from Greenville SC. I don't recall his name being featured in Black Hawk Down, but I guess it is possible, though as one poster pointed out that would be a bit odd. (Why would a Marine's name from an invasion of Panama nearly a decade earlier be part of a movie about an Army Operation half a world away?). P.S. If you know why this was done - please e-mail me, I am very curious. Sounds like one of those great pieces of trivia I can unload on my friends - :-)

the airforce is the easiest followed by the navy. after them two is the army national guard and then the regular army (national guard tends to be less strict). then the marines would have to be the hardest and most discipline branch of the armed forces.

Andy g.\n\nIf a Marine heard you call him a "soldier" he would kick your azs

The UFC guy. Why? Because the Navy SEALs actually spend very little time on hand to hand. Remember, the military assumes people have guns and knives. Even according to a marine combat instructor I know, the combatives program is actually meant until your buddy can show up to shoot them. Besides, knife fighting is still more emphasized than empty armed combat. That is not to say that a SEAL isn't a very good fighter, it just means the SEAL combatives program isn't very in-depth and detailed.

It depends on the person. I would prefer Marine Recon, because I am a Marine. You should know that many of our special forces troops,soldies,sailors, and airmen, work in joint tasked missions. One SEAL team does not have the power of GOD, and there are many military people in the "rear" supporting their mission, don't be fooled by Hollywood movies.

Delta Operators are Not acknowledged by the U.S. government. Which mean what ever they do they are not officially sanctioned by the U.S. government. Also it is said that the Delta Force only recruits people that have actually seen combat and are the Best of the Best. Also Delta can come from any branch of the U.S. Military as long as they meet the requirements. My opinion if your in a force that disavows any knowledge of your existence and most of your operations are not sanctioned by the government but planned by it I would consider that force the best of the best.

Marines....always marines.

They're the "Grunts" .  The basic training is tougher than the other services and their job in the military is front line fighting while the other services are more specialized in other things.  The marines are actually a department of the Navy, and are used by the navy for frontline defense and guarding gates, etc.  They're the muscle.

Marines.  Hands down.

Don't know why a Marine would want to be a Seal, if he joined the Corps instead of the Navy.  Recon has the same mission, but more opportunities to use it.
