There are some medals/ribbons that cross branches (my ship was awarded as a whole the Coast Guard Special Operations ribbon for our CDOPs, even though we were a Navy vessel - we had a USCG detachment on board and worked alongside said USCG detachment which qualified us), but those are mostly ribbons that don't have an equal counterpart in the other branch.
Most likely, you'd be required to requalify for the Navy on your rifle and pistol marksmanship and earn the Navy's equivalent of your medal.

Nope,
The US Navy issues a Ribbon for marksmanship.
You would have to wear the Ribbon, not the Marine badge.
Just like a soldiers who had earned a CIB, would on joining the Marines, not be able to wear it, but wear the Combat Action Ribbon.

The questions you want to be asking are numerous. First, do i favor to positioned on my uniform, does my fiance favor me to positioned on my uniform and if the answer is not any, am i able to have sufficient money to employ a tux? in case you want to positioned on your uniform it truly is suitable when you're an officer or not! no matter if it truly is a army topic wedding ceremony, how are you going to bypass incorrect? Be proud, positioned on the uniform. you've earned the rank, and the medals top? no individual starts out as an Admiral.

Nope. The Navy awards ribbons for that.

Yes it can, any medal's legally earned and awarded can be worn on any uniform of U.S. Military Armed Forces. Example:An individual who earns such in the Marine Corp, then switches service to the U.S. Navy, U.S. Army or U.S. Air Force is entitled to wear medal's, ribbons or awards on any military uniform. Once earned, unless stripped of these medal's through military legal action, individual's that earned or qualified for any and all awards, have the right to display such in approved formations upon the uniform.
