Members of the Marine Corps Forces Special Operations Command will soon be embedded with operators from other branches

Marine special operators are going to begin spending three-year tours with the Navy SEALs, Green Berets, and pararescuemen. The idea is by embedding MARSOC liaison officers with other operators, we will see better inter-branch cooperation. Hopefully it will smooth over joint operations. Especially in a time of deep budget cuts, we are going to need to do everything we can to streamline operations.
