The Union Marines are part of the Caspian Democratic Union's fighting forces, and closely tied to the CDU Navy – technically, they are the Navy's infantry arm, but yet maintain a highly distinct culture from their Navy bretheren. Not all Marines are infantry, but all must meet the standards and code of conduct. The Marines stand guard on Navy ships and bases, and carry out boarding and landing operations. The Navy meanwhile transports the Marines to areas of operation, and supplies the vast bulk of administrative and support functions.

  • The Union Marines are part of the Caspian Democratic Union's fighting forces, and closely tied to the CDU Navy – technically, they are the Navy's infantry arm, but yet maintain a highly distinct culture from their Navy bretheren. Not all Marines are infantry, but all must meet the standards and code of conduct. The Marines stand guard on Navy ships and bases, and carry out boarding and landing operations. The Navy meanwhile transports the Marines to areas of operation, and supplies the vast bulk of administrative and support functions. They trace their lineage through Admiral Roj's fleet to the military of the Old Republic, and are fiercely proud of their traditions, and their role as the Union's shock troopers. They also tend to be the least Caspar/Sarian-centric of all branches of the CDU military. Though one of the smaller branches of the Union's fighting forces, the Marines are very much an elite entity. Training is among the toughest in the galaxy, and they receive the best equipment available. They are equipped with a variety of weapons to execute a variety of roles, including (but not reserved to) ship assault, ship defense, installation assault, installation defense, and guard duty over internees or interests. A typical rifleman, for example, fights in powered combat armor to improve strength, mobility, situational awareness, and survivability, and may be equipped with a variety of heavy weapons. And it is a point of honour that every Marine, regardless of role or rank, must meet the basic standards of a rifleman.
