United States Colonial Marine Corps (Earth-7149)

"Per Mare, Per Terras, Per Constellatum."

- - USCMC's motto (Latin for "By Sea, By Land, By the Stars.")

The United States Colonial Marine Corps (USCMC) is the military, exploratory, and scientific agency of the United Republic of North America. Formed in the latter 22nd agency during the Interplanetary War, the USCMC was initially the overseer of the military operations of the United States Armed Forces on space, that, after a campaign of militarization through the Sol system, became a military superpower. Stretched across human space for the following centuries, the USCMC fought against the Sovereign Colonies, Insurrectionist and other national entities during the Resource Wars, and eventually the xenomorphs in the 26th century.
