Default Thank You

Thank you all for your input, especially all you marines out there. Here is answers to the questions you ask.

1. Yes the Navy/Marine Corps amphibious forces list is for 1996.

2. The Combined Battalion was something I happen as Marine Corps would be more involved mechanized warfare, especially in Europe and the Middle East theaters. The M113s and M1A2 were based on information I had at the time. I have since learned that all of the Marine M1A2s are all US Army Gulf War surplus, which would not be available. The M113s were used because of larger number. I agree AAV7s and M60A3 fit in better and it will be one of the corrections I will be doing.

3. The Maritime Special Purpose Force (The Raiders), the way I envisioned was the Raiders as an ad-hoc unit designed to supplement US Navy SEALs, who would deployed elsewhere.
