LAR is dead....but WTF is mulit-doman recon

 

Gonna have to find the article but LAR is dead. They're birthing a mutli-domain recon outfit (what it looks like no one knows...the campaign of learning ya know!). Anyway. The Marine Corps continues its march to becoming a naval auxiliary, useless outside the Pacific and doomed to case its colors in the near future.

U.S. Marines with 2d Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion attached to Task Group 61/2.4, speak to a UH-1Y crew chief before boarding near Saaremaa, Estonia, May 22, 2022. Task Group 61/2.4 provides naval and joint force commanders with dedicated multi-domain reconnaissance and counter-reconnaissance (RXR) capabilities. Task Group 61/2.4, under Task Force 61/2, is executing the Commandant of the Marine Corps’ Concept for Stand-in Forces (SIF) to generate small, highly versatile units that integrate Marine Corps and Navy forces. Task Force 61/2 is deployed in the U.S. Naval Forces Europe area of operations, employed by U.S. Sixth Fleet to defend U.S., Allied and Partner interests.
