I wonder if they send guys to Scout/Sniper Basic Course. I know in FAST they only went to DM school. Did you guys get issued MK11s? MP HOGs aren't unheard of. Did you guys train any MPs when you were a MOUT instructor? Kind of curious as to how they would stack up compared to your average 03. |

Yeah we trained MP units at MOUT, not close to infantry dudes, but much better than say the band. About the worst people I ever trained were the band and Jacksonville SWAT. |

Im pretty sure they mostly just go to the Marksman/Observer course the Marine Corps puts on through the Advance Training Group. Myself and a few others went thru it this summer with those guys in the article. They actually get a decent amount of range time I was surprised to find out. We got a few seats to the course because we (EOD) had more M110 SASS's than the SRT guys. Good dudes. Young

Militarization of the military police!!!!!

They can go to the school but won't get the MOS 0317. I know some who went to the Army school at Benning when SSBC was not open to non-03s

About the worst people I ever trained were the band and Jacksonville SWAT. DMRs were replaced like 2 years ago, Regt had some teething problems when they first got their guns though, MCSF mission being security, defense and limited offense combine with all but the team leaders and above being UV, UW contract on the MCSF obligation prior to going to OPFOR meant the Regt would not send people to 2nd MarDiv's school. |

A little bit of hype there, the term "Special Operations Capable" is kind of a misnomer for PMO SRT

It's always fun going to shoot with the SRT dudes. They have some cool toys.

Basically anyone who is capable of dive or jump insertions if need be, though it's seldom employed. |

All I see is the "Policization of the Military" and it has to stop. Quit trying to be the police.
Go back to camo BDU's, tanks, and Arty. This is completely shameful. Those shields were developed for civilian SWAT teams and are just not needed in the military. Next thing you know they will want Laser Radar, flex cuffs, and ticket books. |

Prior to 06 MEUs were declared special operations capable based on the predeployment certification to do 22 specific special operations missions sets. Starting in 07, the designation only applied to a MEU that had a Marine Special Operations Company embarked with it
What SRT does would be considered one or even two of the 22 special operations missions, but since they do them in support of Marine Corps bases I don't think any one to include their program manager at PP&O would say they are "special operations capable" |

Also seen here are two pieces of gear not common in the Marine Corps: the olive drab combat uniforms View Quote LOL. You mean a flight suit? |

No, even when the MEU SOC designation went away the BLT still got a recon platoon. What was stood up in 09 was revitalization of the maritime raid force with the embarkation of a Force Platoon to conduct certain levels of VBSS but they no longer are MEU SOC with the MSOC |

The MEUSOC 45 was designated the M45 CQBP about 8 or so years ago,.

Nice to see the 1911 still in the Corps. After all, it was in Aliens.

Damn I'm old Corps, mct trained, humped more than a cheesy 12 miles in SOI and was MEU SOC.
