No. The Continental Congress established the Marine Corps as a separate service to provide Naval Infantry for duty aboard Naval Ships and Naval shore installations. Most early enlistment was made among merchant seamen and General Washington refused to allow his troops to become a part of such a force.

Why do marines go first during war?
When have they, exactly? Special operations units from the Army, Navy, Air Force, and CIA were in Iraq well before the ground invasion started, and the initial push into Iraq involved all branches simultaneously. The Rangers went into Afghanistan when the Marines did. The 82nd Airborne Division of the Army are where the first troops to respond to the 1990 invasion of Kuwait came from. Panama was mostly an Army affair, Grenada involved Navy SEALs and Army Rangers who went in-country before the Marines did, the first advisors to the South Vietnamese were from the Army. The Marine battalions were sent in initially to guard airfields to protect them from attacks by the Viet Cong, but the first major combat action in Vietnam was undertaken by the 7th Cavalry Regiment of the United States Army. So I suppose that your question would have to be based on fact before it could be legitimately answered. LOL the army had to send its best with the everyday marines ^^^^ lol all i see is marines and the best of the rest of the branches... lol not gonna say anything about the marines best huh.
