What are we...as a Marine Corps doing?


Rant time.

For the first time in ten years (according to press releases) the Marine Corps is conducting a large scale amphibious exercise (Bold Alligator).

Meanwhile, we have Battalion Landing Teams (MEU's) doing exercises at Cobra Gold and Enhanced Mojave Viper.

All the work done to set the stage for mini-ARGs...distributed warfare and suddenly the powers that be have arrived at the point where Marine Expeditionary Brigade type training needs to be done!

For what purpose?

Why?

It hasn't been discussed publicly, the reasoning hasn't been explained...the thinking behind it hasn't been shared.

What in the name of Chesty is going on here!
