I like the division idea but I’m actually more interested in the BLT/MEU historical progression. I think there’s an interesting parallel with what the Aussies have done.

That's an interesting idea

A nice summary of the Corps’ reluctance to adopt an overall superior weapon. On a side note, have you considered doing videos on how the Marine Divisions were initially organized in WW2, and how they changed over the decades? You did an amazing job for their rifle squad and I’d be you’d do just as great with their divisions.
