Can the same can be said for US Navy Seals and the likes of the SBS and SAS, folks?

You do realize that your question and my answer could start WW3!

I am not actually sure of the history of the US Marine Corps, but at a guess they copied----could see the sense of-----Our Royal Marines,SAS,SBS. As my now retired son says," everyone else has Marines we(Britain) have Royal Marines"! As I understand it the SAS/SBS has had an input into training special forces from all over the world including the USA. In this part of the world we are proud of the fact that the Commandos(RM) trained many Americans for special operations in WW2. There is huge respect all around the globe for these special, tough and brave men from whichever country they come from.
