In theory the USMC can operate for 90 days with it's inherent logistical capability

Building logistic support into the deployment package seems so logical. :)

Seems to me the Marines operate on a lean, aggressive, flexible mindset combined with being more selective than the Army, which is not as lean and not as flexible. I suspect this predisposes the Marines to be more quickly adaptable to unexpected situations.

It's different to hear a woman who is into war strategy gaming, discussing various military branches and their capabilities. What military branch did you serve? I've served in the US Army and Marines myself. I'm a Desert Storm vet.

USMC 1974-1992.
Technically a Nam Vet...I was in before it was over...as a supply clerk.
In the late 70's and early 80's a lot of oppertunities opened up for females and I ended as a Military Police platoon sergeant during Desert Shield/Storm.

I agree about the logistical support...but I was a jarhead what could I possibly know.

That and an aggressive improvosational attitude.

Look at it this way.
If your primary mission is beach assault falling back to regroup and try again tomorrow is NOT an option.
