What changes have the Marine Corps made in the Divisions?
I was reading an article about the China Marines,2nd Battalion 4th Marine Regiment,and they were part of the 1st Marine Division.Is there no longer a 3rd Marine Divsion?I was talking to a young Marine the other day,and I told him the Marine Detachments are a thing of the past.He said no we are still on ships,but I told him yes that's true but the MarDets became a thing of the past,and that the Navy took over the security and brig work.Freed up some Marines to ship to Afghanistan for 4 or 5 tours.It's only my opinion,but I say leave the Afghanistan people to their own affairs.Heck they don't even want us there.Steps off soap box!
