apart from security clearance issues, a Marine who is a foreign national is treated the same as a Marine who is a US citizen. Same housing, same pay, same benefits. For some, it is a way to become a US citizen, for others it is a way to learn a trade, earn money for college, etc.
I've met Marines who were not US citizens and those I've met were every bit as patriotic and proud of being a United States Marine as those who were born and raised here.
You're right. In order for higher security clearances (positions such as Rangers, Scouts, Spec Force, Airborne, etc.), you need to be a citizen. Positions with lower security clearance, you don't need to be a U.S. citizen. I have a friend who is not a U.S. citizen and is in the U.S. Marines. It's all about whether they trust you with their secrets.
even the british wanna be marines

foreign citizens join US armed forces for citizenship. Or just happen to be put up in the same barracks.
