Does China have a "Marines" division like Taiwan or US? or do they incorporate naval soldiers/amphilibious troops with the PLA?

ok..u know..a simple "please search" would've done it....But I guess almost EVERYONE knows about Chinese Marines. I come here to learn more because not EVERYONE knows about Chinese Defense or at least have accurate information about it. You know, in the US military...they don't show that there is a Chinese Marine Corp...they show as PLA being sent on ships. So, of course I had to ask.

Its called "Marine Corps" under the Navy branch. What is the main difference between US Marines and PLAN Marines ??

the PLA Marines are less numbered, they dont control an "airforce" like the US counterpart, think of the PLA marines as equal to US naval specops ( in terms of trainning and doctrine) they are like the navy seals :china:

That good!?!?!? I dont think so. More like US Marine commandos or Royal Marine commandos, maybe. The Frogmen are like navy seals (but even better).

The USMC doesn't have a commando unit.

The Marine Core's special operations unit is called Force Recon, they are not part of the United States Special Operations Command (SOCOM) though.
