The U.S. Marine Corps, a component of the U.S. Department of the Navy, filed three trademark applications with the United States Patent and Trademark Office this past week.
The trademark applications all filed on June 9, 2011, follow trademark filings by the Department of the Navy for SEAL Team and Navy SEALs, two trademarks the Navy filed after Disney attempted (but later abandoned) to trademark SEAL Team 6.
Here’s a look at the three trademark filings by the U.S. Marine Corps.
