Marine Corps. rank question
It should be a very easy answer.

I saw a Marine In his dress blues Today. (he sure did have a chest full of bars for campaigns he has been in.)

I know looking at the uniform 3 stripes up, 3 down, and crossed rifles is a Master Sergeant.

what are the extra stripes / hash marks on his lower sleeve?

he had 3 there also.

In the Army, 1 service stripe = 3 years
Marine Corps, 1 service stripe = 4 years
