"Army Strong"


"The Few, The Proud"


"Accelerate Your Life"


"Cross Into The Blue"


I personally like the Navy commercial with the SEALs and the beach during the night. Its the only "public" commercial for a Special Forces unit.

the voice on the Navy commericals?  Im pretty sure it aint Morgan Freeman.  Its the one black dude that played the president on 24 and does all state insurance commercials.  He was in the movie "Heat" as that fry cook who becomes the getaway driver in the last minute.

Army Strong.

I get goose bumps every time I watch it or hear that song.

Anyone know the name of that song? I want it for a video and a website theme.

Agreed, it's Keith David.  "How'd ya get the beans above the Frank?", or better yet, known from Platoon.

I like the old Marine Phrase "We don't promise you a Rose Garden" or "We're looking for a few good men."  All the other services were making promises on what they'd give you and how they'd benefit you, while the Marines just asked if you were good enough.  Sold Me.

Navy is the best. But the Air Force has the funnest ad. The Army has corny music but decent advertising. The MArines have music that resembles "honor". All in all... the NAvy makes it look interesting because it has a little bit of everything... good music, good video clips, and makes it exciting enough to make it look like it's actually fun to be in the NAvy. My 2 centavos.

well commercial wise i think it would be the navy since it gives you want you want, where as the army ad shows you want you get and what the army stands for, but the army ad is simply to long and therefore it fails.

but if we look away from the commercials i would prefer the USMC

If you look closely over the years, other services sell a "job" or skill.  Marines just sell the Marines.
