Talk:Philippine Marine Corps

Small arms

I've seen photos Philippine Marine Snipers using Barrett M-95's and Remington 700 P's but their not in the small arms list. I think that they should be, lalo pa't it signifies that the Philippines is catching up somehow. Please, somebody do it! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wickedcrane (talk • contribs) 07:14, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Philippine Marines=Philippine Marine Corps?

AAV

Does Philippines use AAV (Amphibious Assult Vehicles) or not? I`ve seen many photos of the Philippines using AAVs but yet I`ve only seen one website where it does say the Philippines uses AAV and even there they say their just borrwing it from the Americans. Ano ba talaga? Does the Philippines use AAVs or not? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.93.131.58 (talk) 21:16, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

The Philippine Marine Corps has been able to train on them during some exercises with the USMC, but they don't own or operate them. Since it appears you understood this from the single source you read it from, then why do you keep adding it to the list of vehicles operated by the PMC? Sa Tagalog, naiintindihan mo naman pala binabasa mo, e bakit lagi mo dinadagdag yung AAV-7 sa listahan ng equipment ng Philippine Marines? --Edward Sandstig (talk) 21:33, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

table

could someone table out the equipment section? brishcanae (talk) 10:53, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

MX-7 Gagamba and MX-8 Armored Escort Vehicle

Eh question but who uses the MX-8 Armored Escort Vehicle and the MX-7 Gagamba, Army or Marines? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 118.92.160.13 (talk) 08:51, 1 July 2008 (UTC)

Persistent IP vandal

Hi, Please note that a very persistent IP vandal has been adding hoax material to articles on the Philippines' military, military history and ethnic groups, including this article. The IP addresses they've been using include:

As such, anything added by IP addresses starting with 118.93., 118.92 or 202.37 should be considered highly dubious and I strongly recommend undoing such edits on sight. Nick Dowling (talk) 23:17, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

what are the factor that disqualifies an individual in joining marine corps —Preceding unsigned comment added by 112.202.184.111 (talk) 02:55, 30 November 2009 (UTC)

Rank structure

Deos the PMC operate using "army-style" ranks (Private, Sergeant, Major, etc) or naval-style (Captain, Commander, Lieutenant Commander, Bosun, etc) or other? V. Joe (talk) 16:24, 15 December 2009 (UTC)

Army style. phichanad 12:03 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Marine Division

I read in the book Breakaway that in February 1986 the Philippine Navy Marines was organized as a unit designated the 1st Marine Provisional Division. Why is there no mention of this in this article? Another question is why is there no mention of the marines at EDSA? (It was at EDSA that the Philippine Marines probably got the most amount of publicity in its entire history) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 58.69.149.234 (talk) 09:15, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Is this in PMC's inventory?

I happened to pass by [3] and saw pictures of a CROC (Coastal Riverine Overland Craft). Then, is it in the inventory of PN?

Sir Jazer 13 (talk) 05:53, 9 January 2011 (UTC)

no, not yet, and probably will not. let's wait until further details are disclosed. phichanad 12:00 16 January 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Philippine Marine Corps

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Philippine Marine Corps's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "SIPRI":

• From OTO Melara Mod 56: SIPRI Arms Transfers Database
• From Cadillac Gage Commando: "SIPRI arms transfer database". Stockholm International Peace Research Institute. Information generated in 17 June 2011. Retrieved 17 June 2011. {{cite web}}: Check date values in: |date= (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 09:17, 29 December 2013 (UTC)

Reference fixed, thanks for the reminder.
