------------------------------------------------------------------------

The primary mission of the Department of the Navy is to protect the 
United States, as directed by the President or the Secretary of Defense, 
by the effective prosecution of war at sea including, with its Marine 
Corps component, the seizure or defense of advanced naval bases; to 
support, as required, the forces of all military departments of the 
United States; and to maintain freedom of the seas.

The United States Navy was founded on October 13, 1775, when Congress 
enacted the first legislation creating the Continental Navy of the 
American Revolution. The Department of the Navy and the Office of 
Secretary of the Navy were established by act of April 30, 1798 (10 
U.S.C. 5011, 5031). For 9 years prior to that date, by act of August 7, 
1789 (1 Stat. 49), the conduct of naval affairs was under the Secretary 
of War.
    The National Security Act Amendments of 1949 provided that the 
Department of the Navy be a military department within the Department of 
Defense (63 Stat. 578).
    The Secretary of the Navy is appointed by the President as the head 
of the Department of the Navy and is responsible to the Secretary of 
Defense for the operation and efficiency of the Navy (10 U.S.C. 5031). 
The Department of the Navy includes the U.S. Coast Guard when it is 
operating as a Service in the Navy.
Secretary  The Secretary of the Navy is the head of the Department of 
the Navy, responsible for the policies and control of the Department of 
the Navy, including its organization, administration, functioning, and 
efficiency. The members of the Secretary's executive administration 
assist in the discharge of the responsibilities of the Secretary of the 
Navy.
Legal  The Office of the Judge Advocate General provides all legal 
advice and related services throughout the Department of the Navy, 
except for the advice and services provided by the General Counsel. It 
also provides legal and policy advice to the Secretary of the Navy on 
military justice, ethics, administrative law, claims, environmental law, 
operational and international law and treaty interpretation, and 
litigation involving these issues. The Judge Advocate General provides 
technical supervision for the Naval Justice School at Newport, RI.

and afloat. The Naval Criminal Investigative Service is comprised of law 
enforcement professionals who are investigators, crime laboratory 
technicians, technical investigative specialists, security specialists, 
and administrative support personnel.

naval operations necessary to carry out the Department of the Navy's 
role in upholding and advancing the national policies and interests of 
the United States. The operating forces of the Navy include the several 
fleets, seagoing forces, fleet marine forces and other assigned Marine 
Corps forces, the Military Sealift Command, Naval Reserve forces, and 
other forces and activities as may be assigned by the President or the

the command and administration of the operating forces of the Navy.
    The Atlantic Fleet is composed of ships, submarines, and aircraft 
that operate throughout the Atlantic Ocean and Mediterranean Sea.
    The Naval Forces, Europe, includes forces assigned by the Chief of 
Naval Operations or made available from either the Pacific or Atlantic 
Fleet to operate in the European theater.

Commandant of the Marine Corps,

Headquarters, U.S. Marine Corps, 2 Navy Annex, Washington, DC 20380-1775
Phone, 703-614-1034. Internet, www.usmc.mil.

The United States Marine Corps was established on November 10, 1775, by 
resolution of the Continental Congress. Marine Corps composition and 
functions are detailed in 10 U.S.C. 5063.
    The Marine Corps, which is part of the Department of the Navy, is 
the smallest of the Nation's combat forces and is the only service 
specifically tasked by Congress to be able to fight in the air, on land, 
and at sea. Although marines fight in each of these dimensions, they are 
primarily a maritime force, inextricably linked with the Navy to move 
from the sea to fight on land.
    The Marine Corps conducts entry-level training for its enlisted 
marines at two bases, Marine Corps Recruit Depot, Parris Island, SC, and 
Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego, CA. Officer candidates are 
evaluated at Officer Candidate School at Marine Corps Combat Development 
Command, Quantico, VA. Marines train to be first on the scene to respond 
to attacks on the United States or its interests, acts of political 
violence against Americans abroad, disaster relief, humanitarian 
assistance, or evacuation of Americans from foreign countries.
