That all depends on what the Marine's MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) is. I went to Iraq and was the crew chief of an (AAV) Assault Amphibian Vehicle (Armored Carrier; it is like a tank that holds troops and it floats in water for those of you not familiar to military technology) transporting an 81mm Mortar team. My section of AAV's (4 vehicles) transported a 4 man vehicle crew and a 8 man 81mm Mortars gun team per vehicle. Our four guns killed over 1,400 Iraqi Republican Guard in one attack. Now, who is responsible for the 1,400 deaths? The Marine dropping the mortars into the gun tube, the Marine placing sighting rods down, the one aiming, or the Marines in the dirt providing cover so that we can shoot? They were eating breakfast in a mess hall and we shelled their camp. I shot at many people... ....we got shot at about every 5 minutes day and night... ....but everyone was shooting so it's not like I had a confirmed kill. I was there for the initial invasion... everyone was shooting at everyone. We even shot at our own men. So how many people will a Marine kill in Iraq? One of my friends killed 71 Republican Guard one night when we got ambushed in a dust storm. After the attack he changed; he became quiet and withdrawn. Out of the men on my vehicle; all 13 of us fired our weapons in combat; saw dead Iraqi and United States Men; and innocent civilians shot and killed. There is no magic number... if you are so eager to find out talk to a recruiter.
