There is a guy working on such but if he does it correctly that is a lot of modeled detail and options. Look at this profile and pm him and ask if you want a time frame. He might not know as I think he has no DAZ products and I think it takes a long time to get your 1st DAZ product into the store.

There is a thread in the 'Commons' section of this forum called 'Michael & Friends'; you can look, guessing here, about page 65 - 70 in that thread and he has previews of his progress.
hmmm, I checked page 65 but it wasn't there. LOOL, start at pg 55 or earlier then.

That is Naval, not Marine but it is very good job modeling too.
What's the difference (in my dictionary the two words means the same)?
Basically, in the US military the naval crew stays on ship and runs the weapondry and ferrying of land fighting troops with mostly water based vehicles. The fellows that leave the ships to fight on land, that'd be the Marines. Marines are tied very closely to the Navy. Some still consider the Marines part of the Navy which is why they have that name.
The US Air Force used to be part of the US Army and be called the US Army Air Corp before those branches were separated into 2 different services.
Nowadays, there is a lot of replication between the branches of service such as all of them have their own flying, driving, and sailing vehicles that are mission specific.
The Navy and the Marines are separate branches of the U.S. military. The Navy deals with control of the seas through attack, defense and transport of military equipment. The original purpose of the Marines was to capture and control "beach heads," but it expanded to involve more ground combat operations.
FULL ANSWER
The Navy and the Marines were both established in 1775. The Marines were part of the Navy at that time and considered the Navy's ground force. In 1798, the Marines were established as a separate branch of the military. Navy ships attack targets on both the land and in the water. The Navy supports the Air Force by providing runways at sea and transporting air craft. The Navy transports Marines on certain missions.
As of 2014, the Marines are the second smallest branch of the military. Only the Coast Guard has less members. There are approximately 153,000 Marines on active duty. The Navy has approximately 324,000 members on active duty. The Marines specialize in fast deployment due to the smaller size of the unit. The Marines do not have any medics or nurses, instead using Navy medics. The Marines have their own air equipment, including fighters and helicopters. Neither the Navy nor the Marines have a National Guard.
OK, thanks. So different uniforms in the two branches?
Yes
I recently learned that President Harry Truman, back in the early 1950s, wanted to eliminate the Marine corps. He apparantly hated them, called them nothing but the police force for the Navy and wanted them gone. Well he didn't succeed in getting them wiped out but he did manage to really marginalize them for a while.
I've known many US Marines, all of them were stellar people (let's pretend Lee Harvey Oswald never happened!) . From all this I deduce that when Truman was in the army in World War I he most likely got his butt handed to him by a Marine because it sounds like it was personal.
I refused to join the Marines when I showed up at Marine recruiting station and noticed discipline problems. I'm sure most are very disciplined though. One of my uncles was member of the honor guard for Truman's inauguration or maybe it was his funeral, I wasn't born yet so I don't know, but me, LOL, I was told if the reserve unit I was in was ever called up the USA is in big trouble.
Back in the 90's, when Clinton was slashing the military budget, then Commandant of the Marine Corps General Carl E. Mundy, spoke before Congress about the Marine Corps' budget.Effectively he said (reworded frommemory, sorry) "Is there anything that the Marines do on the battlefield that properly trained Army, Navy or Air force do? No. But there are things the Marines do that the American Public hangs on to. We are the first in, and the last out, and for well over two centuries, the Marines have been known for turning boys into men, defeat into victory, and shifting the tide of morale as often as battles."
Congress then slashed the budget of the Army, Navy, and Air Force... and INCREASED the budget of the Marines.
OORAH!
