Recruitment and Training
The Dutch Marine Corps is the oldest branch of the armed forces of the Netherlands.
There are two career possibilities to become a marine: enlisted marine, and marine officer, depending on the educational background.
Only men are allowed to serve as marines but many female navy personnel are attached to marine corps units as cooks, administrators, nurses or medical officers.

Famous quotes containing the word training:
“An educational method that shall have liberty as its basis must intervene to help the child to a conquest of liberty. That is to say, his training must be such as shall help him to diminish as much as possible the social bonds which limit his activity.”
—Maria Montessori (1870–1952)
