Please no one point out how Royal marines are part of the royal navy. I know that navy is water i dont need to be made out to be any more of a muppet than i am lol :D

As you pointed out yourself, the Royal Marines are part of the Royal Navy and alot of the work they do is on the water.

Therefore you have to be a competent swimming and must pass the Battle Swimming Test every year.

I would have thought the "RM45.COM is an airsoft family in Hong Kong" would have given it away.
