marines make headlines again, marines land. one thing that happens is the navy no longer says we can do landing parties, because they go ashore and the navy is wiped. they go into the streets and are shocked down from all -- shot down from all directions. they said they no longer will do that. the marines still have the mission of going ashore from the ships. the point is that the army brigade comes in to replace the navy and marines that are a sure -- that are ashore. the marines are supposed to go back aboard the ships. the admiral says i want to stay and be a part of this occupation. i want to be alongside the army. the admiral says are you sure? be careful what you ask for. they let the marines stay a short. -- stay ashore. was -- he could work with both army and marines, he was not opposed to them. they remained in veracruz. you start to see what will happen in 1917 and 18, when the marines go over and become part of the army second division. they are already seeing this thing out there. france, 1917, unfortunately, tungst

there were two regiments of marines that fought in this area. the fifth and sixth marines.hey were part of the second u.s. division. it was an army division. the marines probably had more experience than the army at the time of world war i. marines had been deployed around the world, in the caribbean. but general pershing, the commander of the american expeditionary forces, didn't want the marines to be part of the aef. it took lobbying from the secretary of the navy, the commandant of the marine corps, finally pershing acquiesced and allowed two divisions, the fifth and sixth marines became part of the second division. they would make their stand here and suffer heavily over a month of fighting. during that period, they lost almost 10,000, wounded and killed. about 1800 of those marines were killed. let's take a look at the area that shows how those marines fought during the period of june 5 through june 26, 1918. now we're headed toward one of the three isolated german artillery pieces. the one i'm approaching is a 1896 model field gun that could hire everything from high

the marine expeditionary unit of today is not the marine expeditionary unit or marine amphibious unit of the past. the cabities that they have with them, information, operations, intelligence, signals, intelligence, all at the appropriate level and the appropriate mix changes each deployment, because the world changes each deployment. so, i think that's one thing that's important. the other part of that is that we do believe that how we task organize these other concepts, where it is eabo, that it can be almost as big or as small as you can envision ito t accomplish a certain so, what are marines going to do? they're going to task organize to accomplish that mission. we can't kill all the bugs with a sledgehammer, you know. we have to be a little bi more precision and more specific about how we get after certain problems. so, i think as we always have done, we'll experiment with different organizational structures in order to see which one might bet able to get after a particular mission, but we rely heavily on the tactical commander, the guy or gal that's down there on the leading ed

you might be, in the emergency between the surge marine force and the patrolling marine force, on the block, as it were, and perhaps a three-way fabrication with those guys on the hatter missions offering auxiliary ships who mit not have thesame level of harare or masks, to what degree are you creating different flavors of mag taf? we already have special forces. what degree can you retain the interchangeability you have right now? >> so, not to try and make this too simple, because it ist, the marine corps is a one force, if something breaks around the world, forces you described are the ones who are going to go. so, for instance, in the korean theater, there are forces that have trained specifically for that mission. there are forces that camp that have comes to full conflict have not trained specifically for that mission. now they have obviously done very well to train to the corps essential tasks within their mission, but they may not s steeped in the knowledge of the peninsula as the ones who will work there every day and stream them. same goes that force that is almost every con

what should the marine corps be thinking more about? >> i think-- i leagree with the general themes that the general talked about this morning. in my mind the focus on information warfare and the spectrum warfare is, i think, overdue and well warranted and so i think that is the critical enabling capability that has to be considered. so, dot think there r they are not-- don't think they are not thinking about the right things. the-- i think the marine corps faces fundamental challenges in, while you are able to leverage the other serves more significant-- services more significant, that hems you in a certain extent. you don't have a lot of money to go pursue new capabilities. capabilities that the larger services do. i also think you are inherently dependent on the others so that you can come up with great concepts, i think one of the challenges the marine corps had is they had a lot of good concepts and not as much impact as they might have if they had been one of the bigger services. within the constraints that you face, i think the f

to what degree are you creating different flavors oflene -- marine. -- marine?to what degree can you maintain the capability you have now? >> [indiscernible] not to try to make this too simple because it's not -- the marine corps is a one mco force. if something breaks around the , the forces you describe are the ones that are going to go. , in the korean theater, there are forces that have trained specifically for that mission. camp lejeuneces at today, if it comes to a full-blown conflict, have not trained specifically for that mission. now, they have obviously done very well training for the essential tasks that are within notr mission, but they may be as steve in the knowledge of the peninsula as the ones who work there every day. same goes for that force that is almost every conflict i can think of in recent history the marine corps has been associated with. we did windows on the way to or back from the conflict. --ther it was desert storm it seems like library a was always a stopping point to or from a conflict that was always a little more serious. soluti
