Can someone inform me?
Does the Army have better equipment, better logistical support, better living conditions, better support networks, better benefits, better weapons, and air support? I want to know the facts. An army soldier is claiming that the army has better of all these things than the marines. I just want to know the facts.
You want to know the true facts? Here it is ; logistical support yes, only because the army is bigger and has a bigger budget. The Marines share the Navy budget as equal partners.
The benefits are in favor of the Army in that it has specialty jobs.Every Marine is a basic riflemen. The Marines also have specialty jobs. After service benefits are the same in all branches of the military.
Weapons are all the same as is the support networks.
Air support is in favor of the marines who perfected it to a science They also have fighter-jet support which the Army has none and must rely on the other branches of the services. The Marines perfected amphiblous warfare and close air support before the Army. as a matter of fact the Marines had to teach the Army about amphibious warfare to invade Europe in WW2. Now, you can decide for yourself. By the way the Marines are a smaller and elite force who can and will deploy in a shorter time than the Army can.
Air Force Enlistment Question?
Yes, Army is much more beneficial and more equipped than the Marines are. The tax money mostly goes to the US Army.

That soldier is telling the truth. The marines go out of their way to smear lies about the army so people will continue to join. The marines are poorly funded and don’t have near as many people. They are about even in combat ability. The marines are like the red headed step child. They are like the army without the perks other than the media kissing their a*s.
