The United States Marine Corps is made up of highly trained volunteers who have become expert in amphibious warfare and jungle fighting.
The fundamental building block of the US Marine Corps in the Pacific was the Marine Rifle Company. The size of a full-strength company changed during the course of the war but they would usually begin a campaign with about 245 men. The Marine Rifle Company Headquarters itself was made up of approximately 30 men which included support troops, runners and signalmen whose job it was to keep the com-mander up-to-date with what was happening around him.
The men and officers of a Marine Rifle Company had under-gone extensive training and consisted of volunteers. Though not equipped with the latest weapons, those they had were reliable, tried and tested. The Marine esprit de corps was built on exhausting, comprehensive, training which prepared the rifleman well for the rigours of fighting in the jungles and islands of the Pacific.
