Too bad they couldn't have been here for WOH. Saw the C17, and Thunderbird heading south this AM from my work in League City. Also saw the big Air Force (Jolly Green?).

That would be a Marine CH-53 Super Stallion mine sweeper from HM-15 based at NAS Corpus Christi, TX.

Is it Navy or is it USMC? The USMC aircraft have Navy titles or Marines? [Honest question]

Sorry, I know that its Navy, but I had Marines (from a different issue) on my mind when I typed my response. If it were Marine, it would be with an HMM squadron.
My apologies.
