Axel: Thanks so much for your elaboration. I now assume that the one reference I saw to the Flanders Marine Korps probably dealt with "dismounted" sailors serving as ground troops. Evidently akin to what the Japanese Navy called special naval landing forces and the Soviet Navy called naval infantry.
