摘要

The Marine Corps is inadequately prepared to support present doctrine. Existing deficiencies severly handicap Marine communicators in their attempt to provide tactical communications support under combat conditions, The present structure of the communications battalion is organized to support a Marine Amphibious (MAF) Headquarters and provide communication support to other units of the MAF requiring assistance. This study identified the structure, mission statements, and major items of equipment required to support the headquarters of multiple Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) deployments. The scope of this study includes MAGTF headquarters and their links with senior and subordinate commands.
