It is also possible for a pirate to become a Marine if they have the recommendation of a Marine officer. A former pirate may join the Marines if they undergo a trial and are pardoned for past crimes, such was the case for Jango. However, some pirates, such as Vergo, manage to slip in without the Marines realizing. The Marines at the 153rd Branch in Shells Town had initially wanted to perform a background check on Koby. The Marines try to make sure that no pirates infiltrate their ranks. Non-Cononcally, the youngest known person to enlist is Zephyr, who joined at the age of fourteen. Canonically, the youngest known person to enlist in the Marines is Koby, who joined at the age of sixteen. It is currently unknown if there is minimum age requirement for joining the Marines. One can even enlist if the base they are enlisting at is outside their homeland, as seen when Koby enlisted at the base in Shells Town, even though he is from somewhere else. There also seems to be no restriction based on nationality. While a majority of Marines are seen to be male, there is also a good number of female Marines, including Tsuru, Gion, Hina, Tashigi, Isuka and formerly Bell-mère. There are no enlistment restrictions regarding gender. It appears that one simply needs to ask to join and a ranking officer, presumably the base commander specifically, simply needs to approve the enlistment. The exact process of joining the Marines is unclear.
