Brief Duty Description:
A Starfleet Marine is sworn by an pledge with withhold the values of Starfleet and the Federation. They are bound by duty to protect and to serve the Federation, sometimes by any means necessary. It is interesting to note that the Marines' oath is to the United Federation of Planets and not to Starfleet, although they bear the name. Should the unlikely situation occur in which Starfleet as a military arm opposes the Federation, the Marines would be obliged to defend the UFoP against Starfleet.


In their contingent, the Marines are part of a selective group including fighters, heavy armoured units and land vehicles. All are maintained by the Engineering Department on the StarBase.
