Which branch is famous for the battle cry 'Oorah'?
The answer is D: The Marine Corps
'Oorah' is the Marine Corps rallying cry, used to express everything from a fired-up 'yes' to shared pride. One popular account traces it to the 1950s, when Marines riding submarines picked it up from the 'aarugha' dive-alarm sound.
