Marine Corps

The ZXMC (ZX Clan Marine Corps) is a branch of the ZX Clan, and currently contains one fully operational battalion. The marine corps will perform invasions, landings, shipboard security, etc. Once landed, it will usually assume an army-like role. The marine corps is used mainly on land as offence, and on ships as defence. Members of the ZX Clan are called marines.

Mission
The ZX Clan is dedicated to defence, and as such, the marine corps is responsible for ensuring the safety of its allies. The ZXMC is usually used in an offensive role, due to its invasive nature. Usually, defensive units of the ZXMC will provide onboard protection to ZXN ships. In the event of a major invasion on allied territory, the marine corps will take the army's offensive role, and the army will fall back to a defensive role on allied territory. However, this scenerio is rather unlikely to happen in the near future.

History
In late 2009, the ZX Clan was created. It had the same form of organization as the current ZXMC. In late 2010, it split into four branches, the ZXMC, the ZXAF, the ZXA, and the ZXN. Slight changes were made to the organizational system of the ZX Clan, and it soon became the marine corps, and the ZX Clan became the name for all four branches together, under the command of the top brass.

From late 2010 to early 2011, the ZXMC was deployed in Afghanistan, alongside the Canadian Forces Land Force Command, in substution for the ZXA, which was unavailable at the time.

Senior Leadership
Currently, the senior leadership of the ZXMC consists of only one member, of the standard three branch leaders. There is no commander in chief, however there is a senior enlisted advisor. The senior enlisted advisor is currently under-ranked WO. J. Brooker. The ZXMC is in need of a commander in chief, and a reprasentative (second in command).
