Pride

Pride

As a Royal Marine, you can feel real pride in the job you do. Earning your green beret in the first place takes more than most people have to give, and you’ll have accomplished more in a few years than many do in a lifetime. And it’s not just the pride you feel. Your friends and family will see you at the passing out parade and feel immense pride on your behalf. This is a job where respect isn’t just a possibility – it’s guaranteed.

 Here's what some of our people think about life in the Royal Marines:
