Reading through the organization of the Space Marines, I decided to make a handy write-up for anyone who hasn't.
Scout Squad - This is where you join the chapter. You are new and inexperienced, but already a fearsome warrior. You have trained from the tender age of 10 years old in the arts of combat and war. You are eager to prove yourself, but still have much to learn. If you survive and you learn, you will eventually join a....
Devastator Squad - Your first experience with Power Armor! At first you are relegated to a support role, wielding an ordinary bolter and defending your battle-brothers while they blaze away with heavy arms. You are thrown into the thickest fire, the most dangerous battles; devastator squads are called upon when assaulting fortified positions or enemy armored units. Should you survive the odds and impress your leaders, you are eventually promoted into a...

Should you endure this brutal duty and emerge alive and victorious, one day you shall be moved into a...

After service in the Tactical Squad, having served in a hundred campaigns, and fought a thousand battles, you have accumulated the wisdom and experience to fight in the...
Veteran Company - Whether clad in Terminator armor or more ordinary powered armor, you are a force to be reckoned with. Behind your eyes sits an entity which knows only war; whose every breath is fear for the enemy and whose deeds and exploits are chapter legend. Should you survive the many centuries of warfare to reach this point, you will be hailed as one of the Chapter's rarest and most precious members. The Veteran Squad is capable of turning back entire armies, and routing whole worlds when necessary. They are the Emperor's Chosen. They are the true Astartes. They are the Space Marines.
