-USS Rescue Medical Marines

The Beast
The Beast are the name of the medical marines abord the USS Rescue. The idea of the "Belle" like woman from "Bueauty & the Beast" is that she loves the beast and the marines are the beast, therefor she is kissing them and has the Marine Corps tattoo on her shoulder. Of course it has the Rescue and the MCS-175 on the logo too.

Their Mission
To be marines!

From a fan perspective
The marines do all the things other members do. They promote healthy living, CPR, etc... They just do it as marines! The rank structure is a little different and some say their attitude is too! Being a marine in Starfleet Medical Corps will not change what you can do as a fan. If you choose to be a marine you can still be a ship captain, department chief, etc... Though as a marine you may decide to take a different route, you may want to focus your volunteer time on more marine oriented things, besides marines care about thier health too.

From Starfleet Medical Corps Perspective
When the Rescue is orbiting a planet that is hostile and we need to treat the wounded but there are bad guys in between us and them, we have the Medical Marines. These marines fight to get to the patients so the patients can get the care they need. Then they provide cover so that the EMS, doctors and nurses, some of which are marines too, can do their jobs and get out safely.
