Amphibious Forcible Entry forces courtesy of the US Army? American Mercenary thinks so!

I was making my spin around the internet when I came across American Mercenary's latest. Read it here, but consider this a hint at his thought process.

Think back to the experiments the Army did in the early 80's with Motorized Infantry (9th ID I believe...too lazy to look it up) but beef it up with much more firepower and much more lift and you have the idea.

Personally, I like it.  On a purely partisan note.  Imagine if the USMC had already proceeded with the Marine Personnel Carrier.  How hard would it be to get the Army to buy enough to equip its Infantry Brigades slated for the Pacific?  Not hard at all I imagine.  You can bet that the US Army is already making plans to get its forces aboard JHSVs or AFSBs with a quickness.  This plan by American Mercenary just sings to future possibilities for the big green.

Sidenote:  How do these forces get ashore?  According to AM by the Army's landing craft.  Read about it here.  350 ton capability! If the Army gets inventive and teams the JHSV with these landing craft to form some type of Army Amphibious Force and base it in Singapore or Guam or even Australia, then they'd be cooking with gas.
