[[Starfleet Marine Corps]] personnel are trained at the Starfleet Marine Corps Academy, located in San Francisco on [[Earth]].

All [[Starfleet]] officers who accepted assignment to [[Starfleet Intelligence]] or the Security And Tactical Division of the Starfleet Support Services Section were subjected to an accelerated course of SFMC training in a holographic environmental simulator program called "The Crucible." This program is designed to train, shape and mentally prepare the future Marines for a variety of combat and mission scenarios.

The roots of the Starfleet Marine Corps date back to the mid-eighteenth century on [[Earth]]. The mission of these marines was to provide sharp shooting and security support to naval [[rank|captain]]s, as well as perform amphibious raids on shore facilities. The Marine Corps of the United States of America is of particular note, and many of the SFMC's traditions originated with them. the Marines of the United States would fight many galactically known battles during their three hundred years of service, these included the landings at Tripoli, Libya, during the Barbary Wars, they marched on the Halls of Montezuma during the Spanish American War, eventually they would be involved in the Second World War, fighting actions on Guadalcanal, Bougainville, Tarawa, Iwo Jima and Okinawa, among other places.

Their equipment is similar to fleet standard, but with several noted differences, most of the weapons are fitted with expanded power supplies for covert missions, their uniform is quite different from starfleet norm, borrowing elements from various Battle Dress Uniforms throughout history.
