United Earth Marines

The United Earth Congress approves a Unites Earth Marine Corps by recommendation of Admiral Stahl. He produces as 500 pages document entitled: "Space Marines, Combat rules and tactics for a new age." An old USMC Master Gunnery sergeant by the name of John Braddock is tapped to become the first Commandant of the United Earth Marine Corps.

The officials tasked with the creation wait patiently until the church bells in Philadelphia ring in a new day. on the 20th, October 2117 the United Earth Marines are founded.

The military personel transfered to the fledling United Earth Marine Corps were mostly from the United Earth Navy, but there were some that had served in the United Earth Space Force, System Defense Guard and United Earth Army as well. About 5% of those individuals had previously been in one of the various national Marine Corp units.

When his transfer request to the United Earth Marine Corps was rejected by Admiral McElligott, Admiral Stahl resigned his commission and enlisted as a recruit.

Like the other branches of the UE Military, the UE Marine Corps transitioned into the Union Marine Corps shortly after the founding of the Union.
