Holy Shit! Space Marines!

From Defense Tech, who's post title, by the way, is freakin' hilarious:

Looks like someone at the Pentagon is finally taking the idea seriously.
Now, these won't be sci-fi space marines that live on starships or any of that kind of shit that you see in the movies. These guys will be your average(?), run of the mill expeditionary force who are simply deployed via a reusable upper-stage space-travel vehicle.

Supporters of the project call this the next logical step for the Marine Corps and their centuries-long tradition of expeditionary killing warfare.
