Hardly. While U.S. Marines are exceptional, they really are a regular and sizable branch of the military. Despite the problems in the US Army, they are still probably at least on parr with Euro armies, AND they have the Marines to do their dirty work. :P
Don't get me wrong, not all soldiers are sub-parr, merely the majority of them. I have known and read/heard about many fine soldiers, but on the whole, they are a sorry bunch of buffoons.
