Per request, crew and marine allocations are explained here:

Ships: Crew and Marines Required
Bases (including SAMS, CPL, CPP): Crew and Marines Required
Construction Docks and FRDs: Marines Required (Crew is free)
Freighters: Marines Required (Crew is free)
Fighters: Pilots and Deck Crews are free
PFs: Crew and Marines Required (Crew becomes PF Crew permanently)
Ground Bases: Crew and Marines Required
Ground Bases on Major Planets: Marines Required (Crew is free)

Legendary Officers and Ambassadors in transit take up one Crew Unit.

Note: When you need to provide a unit for a mechanic (ie. Colony
growth above X, Police ships), Crew need not be allocated.  This
overrides any previous rules as such.
