In my country we only have the air force, army, and navy who cover the air, land, and the sea, respectively. What makes the Marines and Coast Guard different?
(Also, why do the Marines have a reputation for being bloodthirsty crayon chewers? Is that what makes them special?)

Marines in theory are the assault troops landed from the sea. Since nearly everywhere away from America is overseas the easiest way to get troops there is to land them by boat. The coast guard protects against smugglers and others who illegally enter US maritime waters.
