American US Marines

“My fellow Marines, you have a unique opportunity to join with your Brother Royal and U.S. Marines from the UK in order to foster a brotherhood of Marines. Let me encourage you to get involved. I will join you on occasion.” - J Livingston, Major General USMC (Ret), Medal of Honor Recipient

The American US Marines Branch of the Royal Marines Association is a virtual branch which aims to bring together both serving and former United States Marines and Royal Marines. It seeks to build close ties between our two Corps, encouraging membership from those Royal Marines who have served on exchange in the US with those of the USMC who have served in Royal Marine Units; indeed US or Royal Marines who have served together are encouraged to join such that we can encourage the bonds of friendship built through shared values and experiences in the service of our Corps and Countries.

Branch President - USMC Major General James Livingston

Branch Treasurer - USMC Larry Lewis

Buglers

The Buglers’ Branch of the Royal Marines Association is a virtual branch which aims to bring together both the serving and former members of the oldest Specialisation within the Corps.  It will provide a focal point for all in order to keep  members up to date with information about reunions, support and the current status of the serving ‘custodians’ of our proud heritage and traditions.  The branch is open to all serving and former members and their families.  Notably within this branch there is also the RMA Corps of Drums which provides the ability to perform under the RMA name, for former members and also to provide training to the next generation – ensuring the continued success and high esteem the Royal Marines have always been and will continue to be held as Buglers within the Royal Marines family.
