Ministry of Defense approved a new emblem and flag of the Marine Corps

The Department of Defense has approved a new emblem and flag for the Marine Corps. New samples of the flag have already been sent to all marines.

As reported "News" with reference to the military department, the new emblem and flag are brought to a single standard, according to which the flags of other branches of the military are made. Now commanders can order flags and emblems of a new sample (a flag is a mass product, as opposed to a banner that exists in a single copy).



If earlier the symbol of the Marine Corps was the St.Andrew's flag with an anchor located in the center in a black circle with a red border, then the new one uses a white St.George cross, the space between the ends of which is painted black with three red stripes. Black means belonging to the fleet, and red - to the infantry, that is, actions on land. The Marines have the same black shoulder straps with red gaps.

To the anchor, which remained unchanged in the center of the symbol, was added the image of a grenada (grenade) exploding in three directions. Exactly the same grenada is depicted on the emblem of motorized riflemen, but on it the flame only bursts upwards.

The appearance on the emblem of the "black berets" of the symbol of ground forces (grenade), in addition to the traditional anchor, according to military experts, reflects the changed role of the marines, which can land both from the sea and from the air and carry out missions at sea and on land.

(...) this branch of service is not just a structural part of the fleet, but, in fact, an expeditionary force capable of operating at sea and on land in any region of the world. They can perform a wide range of tasks - from the fight against piracy on the shipping routes to the evacuation of Russian citizens from their unstable regions and humanitarian operations.

- added military historian Dmitry Boltenkov.

                          You will poke your wife. I will not run, but rather save the bullet for you and you alike. And see that you do not have to run. People like you are destroying society. Something you do not say how the Soviet government also changed names for itself, not to mention the fact that the Soviet government completely forgot and trampled on the history and traditions of the army of the tsarist era. For some reason, the same thing is bad for some of you and good for others. So good for nothing

                          It doesn't matter whether people like you like it or not, but the USSR, and everything connected with it, has firmly entered history and will be learned by subsequent generations. But the memory of people like you, alas, or maybe not alas, is unlikely to be of interest to anyone, except perhaps to a narrow, specific circle of people. And that's a fact. And even the Yeltsin era, which I do not respect, is also firmly entrenched in history, but as blamed, as a warning to non-repetition. And this is also a fact. So if you don't like something, you shouldn't spit so zealously. This spit is just an atom in the infinity of the universe. Well, not a fig for myself, I'm a philosopher)))

All military traditions and the history of the Russian army of the tsarist era were killed and forgotten. And when they started doing them in the same way, it was bad. For some reason, the same thing is bad for some and good for others. It is not right. You start talking about it and start robbing.

          Someone has nothing to do.

          What does "nothing to do" mean? The cost of a chevron in the store will be 100 rubles. Multiply by the number of marines, and even by 4-5, since the chevron is on the field, on the daily, on the front door, and what else is there in the fleet. It will turn out to be a decent amount. Moreover, periodically change them. To make it look neat.
          As one hero said: "You talk apaly ..."

            change: it means to erase the past .. who needs it? The Marines, Airborne Troops, everything was fine, but no ... someone needs to erase the past. Idiot caps in the 90s in the navy introduced the type of these ... aerodromes like those of a fagot ... they enrage the hoopoes ... there is a classic Russian military uniform ... nuances are possible, but you don't need to lose the coast!

        The grenade was still on the headdresses of the Russian army during the Napoleonic wars. It is also a symbol to take in dozens of armies.

      I apologize for the late ignition. Just signed up. And then, only because of the flag of the Marine Corps. They picked up women in the Armed Forces, admiral-generals pondered the girls. And those, not knowing what to do, "let's embroider with a cross," but for a living. How did the St. Andrew's flag prevent you? It's a symbol! When we served, in Soviet times, next to the flag of the USSR Navy, in albums and on tattoos, we always had the St. Andrew's flag. What a shame is this? You will be silent - the Marines will also make black and red vests. Is it awkward? But the gaps on the shoulder straps correspond somehow, according to Yudashkin, in a modern way.
