Berger bans the use of AAV in training and amphib ops...is this a stealth move to get rid of AAV Bn? What do you do with all those Marines?

Thanks to FormerDirtDart for the link!

NEW: Marine Corps Commandant Gen. David Berger has decided the service will no longer use the Amphibious Assault Vehicle during scheduled deployments or to train in the water during military exercises, a Marine Corps spokesman said today. https://t.co/y6yxTfWaiU (by @JustinSKatz)

Looks like we're seeing where the manpower savings will come from.

I've wondered aloud how the ACV fits with Berger's future vision. Then we had the Commandant talking about accepting a smaller Marine Corps to get his future LAW.  Now we get this news.

I think he's pulling one but we'll see.
