I have Nephews that are currently serving our Country. They started out in the Corp and after many years as Marines they are now both in the Air Force. They have both told me that all of the services have their own basic training. Even after serving as a Marine they both had to go through some basic training for the Air Force. Each branch of the service has different jobs and obligations, so their training msy as a matter of need be different.
