Elite Units of the West DLC

They got a bit of fame from the Barbary escapades but yes, not exactly the same name-recognition that you'd get from the various expatriate units. I like the idea, particularly in the era of officer-owned or sponsored units being in a sense unique and separate organizations within an army, or displaced units fighting for a sympathetic foreign power, but the Marines don't fit that at all.

Not to menttion they are wearing blue instead of green

When the current Marine corp was formed in 1798 they were given infantry uniforms, and those infantry uniforms had blue coats.

Indeed, by the War of 1812 they had blue uniforms with shakos. I think the pants were either blue or white, I forget.
