The British were the first to land amphibious assault in 1664. IN Russian army a special command of marines was created from the crew of the ship "Eagle" in 1698. It was after this successful experiment that Peter I decided to create a marine regiment based on the command Baltic Fleet.

Marine Corps Day in Russia is celebrated annually on November 27. The holiday was established by the order of the Commander-in-Chief of the Russian Navy dated July 15, 1996 “On the introduction of annual holidays and professional days by specialty."

Prototype military formations, similar to the Marine Corps, first arose in England in 1664. In Russia, the formation of the Marine Corps as a branch of the naval force occurred during the Northern War with Sweden (1700-1721). The date of its creation is considered to be November 27 (November 16, old style) 1705, when Peter I issued a decree on the formation of a “regiment of naval soldiers” to serve in boarding and landing teams.

Initially, the marines were used to conduct rifle fire on the crews of enemy ships, boarding combat and guard duty. First baptism of fire she received it in 1706 in the Vyborg Bay during the capture of the Swedish boat Espern in a boarding battle. She also distinguished herself in Battle of Gangut in 1714.

Marine boarding and landing teams were subordinate to the ship commanders, and in matters of special combat training, to the chief of the squadron's marine corps. After the end of the campaign, the teams were united into their battalions, passed combat training and performed guard duty at the base.

At the end of the XVIII - early XIX century, due to changes in the nature of wars and the methods of conducting combat operations by fleets, the Russian marine corps was reorganized several times. During this period, it was considered primarily as a combat branch of the military, intended for landing operations.

Detachments of the Russian Marine Corps participated in Russian-Turkish wars late XVIII century, in the Mediterranean campaign of Admiral Fyodor Ushakov (1798-1800), during the Russian war as part of the second coalition against France, when, as a result of the landing operations The Ionian Islands were liberated from the French, and what was considered impregnable fortress Corfu, liberated central and southern part Italy, Naples and Rome are occupied.

Formed in 1810, the naval guards crew, the only part in the history of the Russian fleet that represented both a ship's crew and an infantry guards battalion, took part in the Patriotic War of 1812. Operating on the land front, it partially performed some of the functions of the Marine Corps, namely, it established crossings over water barriers, destroyed enemy crossings, etc. In 1813, parts of the Marine Corps were transferred to the army department and lost contact with the fleet. After this, for almost 100 years there were no large full-time marine formations in the Russian fleet.

During the Crimean (Eastern) War of 1853-1856, the defense of Sevastopol (1854-1855) required a large number of naval rifle units from the fleet, once again confirming the need for the marine corps, whose formations were urgently formed from ship crews.

The question of forming permanent units of the Marine Corps was raised in 1910. In 1911, the Main Naval Staff developed a project for the creation of permanent infantry units at the main fleet bases: infantry regiment Baltic Fleet, battalion Black Sea Fleet and the Vladivostok battalion. In August 1914, three individual battalions from the personnel of the Guards Fleet Crew and the 1st Baltic Fleet Crew. At the same time, the formation of naval battalions of the Black Sea Fleet began.

All formations of the Marine Corps, according to the purpose and nature of the tasks performed, were divided into two types: units intended for land fronts, and Marine Corps units and formations operating in naval theaters.

Permanent Marine units served in World War I (1914-1918) as well as the Civil War (1917-1922). After graduation Civil War they were disbanded again.

In the summer of 1939, a separate special rifle brigade was formed as part of the coastal defense of the Baltic Fleet, which took part in the Soviet-Finnish war of 1939-1940. In May 1940 it was reorganized into special brigade Marine Corps.

The Marine Corps received further development during the Great Patriotic War (1941-1945). With the outbreak of hostilities in fleets, flotillas and naval bases, the formation of brigades and battalions of marines began, which were staffed from the personnel of ships, coastal units and naval educational institutions. They were intended primarily for conducting combat operations in coastal areas, primarily in amphibious and anti-amphibious operations. In total, during the Great Patriotic War, 21 brigades and several dozen separate regiments and battalions of the Marine Corps operated in various sectors of the Soviet-German front. Marine units took part in the defense of Moscow, Leningrad (now St. Petersburg), Odessa, Sevastopol, the Arctic, Stalingrad (now Volgograd) and others. They influenced the rear and flanks of enemy groups, diverted their significant forces, and assisted the troops striking on land. In August 1945, the Marines landed at the ports of Korea, South Sakhalin and the Kuril Islands. In total, during the Great Patriotic War, the Marine Corps participated in more than 120 landings. The enemy called the Marines the "Black Death".

For their heroism during the Great Patriotic War, dozens of Marine Corps units were awarded guards titles and honorary titles. Tens of thousands of Marines were awarded orders and medals, and more than 150 were awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

In 1956, during the reorganization of the USSR Armed Forces, marine units were disbanded, but already in 1963, in accordance with the increased tasks solved by the USSR Navy, on the basis of motorized rifle regiments ground forces Marine units were again formed. The first Guards Marine Regiment appeared in the Baltic Fleet. In the same year, a marine regiment was formed in the Pacific Fleet, in 1966 in the Northern Fleet, and in 1967 in the Black Sea Fleet. Soon at the regiment base Pacific Fleet a marine division was deployed. In 1979 separate shelves the remaining fleets were reorganized into brigades.

The Marine Corps carried numerous combat services in the Mediterranean Sea, Indian Ocean, y west coast Africa, participated in local conflicts of times cold war- for example, in Angola, Yemen and other distant approaches to the borders of the USSR.

After the creation of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in the first half of the 1990s, the Marine Corps was transferred to a new organizational structure. The essence of its transformations was to give greater independence to subunits and units when performing tasks in isolation from the main forces.

In the 1990s, units and divisions of the Marine Corps took part in hostilities in the North Caucasus. For courage and heroism, more than 20 marines were awarded the title of Hero of Russia, about five thousand were awarded orders and medals.

The modern marine corps in the Russian Navy includes formations and military units of the Pacific, Northern, Baltic, Black Sea fleets and Caspian flotilla. All units and subunits belong to permanent combat readiness formations, are maintained in wartime staff, and are recruited on a contract basis and by conscription. At their disposal is a floating military equipment, portable anti-tank and anti-aircraft systems and automatic small arms.

Marines serve on board warships of the Russian Navy in the far ocean and sea zones. As part of anti-terrorism units, they participate in long-distance voyages of warships of the Russian Navy and successfully complete tasks during international and naval exercises.

The motto of the Marines is “Where we are, there is victory!”
