Default Re: Thermal Imaging and US Infantry

I'm the USMC nitpicker.

The TI equipped infantry units are included in the OOB in case someone wants to do a SOCOM (Special Operations Command) scenario. In which case the Marines would be equipped with all the fancy toys in order to support the SEALs, Green Berets, Delta. There is a special MARSOC (USMC Forces Special Operations Command) formation that is tasked with providing any "combat muscle" that might be needed.

They ARE NOT "Special Forces", but they're the next best thing.
