Berger's Marine Corps is totally unrecognizable to what has come before and has thrown away the MAGTF. Tanks? Call on the Army. Heavy Breaching of field fortifications/obstacles? Call on the Army. Snipers? Call on the Army. Attack Helicopters to provide air support? Call on the Army. The New Marine Corps is a butched up recon outfit that is useless outside the Pacific and is available only in select other parts of the world.
The idea that THIS MARINE CORPS will still act as a force in readiness is a pathetic JOKE!
Quite honestly at this point it would be better to case the colors and give the Navy the Marine Corps funding to buy more destroyers, aircraft and other gear. The Army can provide landing troops.
Berger's plan hasn't guaranteed the future of the Marine Corps, instead its an evolutionary dead end.
At least these RECON bubbas can find a new home in a Ranger Battalion. I imagine the rest of the Marine Corps will be welcomed in one of the 3 remaining services.
