why isn't there a US Navy team in there, as there is just about everything else, and since there are ships after all

The US Corpsman class is Navy, and you can always pretend that the MSPF class is a member of a SEAL platoon attached to a MEU(SOC).

Yes, equip them with brooms, fire hoses, and potato peelers.

how bout equip them like you normally would, as with anyother team. oh and btw thats verry offensive as my family is Navy!

It's not meant to be offensive, I'm currently in the Navy!
It's a seabee joke. They tell you in basic to mess with you, that you'll either be given a broom, a fire hose, or a potato peeler.

I've taken the liberty of correcting your grammar. .

1. Naval Warfare will not be in the near future of Project Reality, if ever.
2. Maistros is in the Navy.

Anyway, on a serious note.. the general Navy does not do ground combat missions and therefore, until there are Naval Wartime Maps (I doubt there will be since you can't move ships) then the most you'll see of the Navy are the Corpsmen or the occasional SEAL faction (At least I hope to use them on my Coronado map, WIP)

Well, since the only maps with ships on them are coastal ones where the objectives are on land, there isn't much need for a Navy faction. The ships are static, so they don't require a crew, except gunners. And modeling a surface warfare crewman only to operate the few guns that are on ships would be a class noone would play.

The only other surface craft are RHIBs, which are also operated by Marine coxswains. Marine and Navy pilots wear the same wings and go to the same school. While there are Navy personnel aside from SEALs and Fleet Marine Force Corpsmen who operate inland or on surface platforms in small unit tactical roles, such as EOD teams, Seabees, ship's VBSS teams and the "new" Riverine units, these are not forces designed to or capable of seizing and holding territory like the Army and Marines. I know they are very good at what they do in the real world, but they would not bring anything to the game.

So there is to be no Naval Special Wrafare? Or SEABEES? Or any Navy team for that matter?
