USMC OOB 13: minor observations
1.) Jeep carry capacities
Unit 367 (Jeep, armed with .30 cal AAMG) has carry capacity 106, while unit 375 (Jeep, armed with .50 cal AAMG) has carry capacity 107. I would presume the carry capacity should be the same for both (probably 106).
2.) Rocket launcher formation availability dates
a.) Formation 113 (Rocket Section) is available from 12/43, while formations 91 (Rocket Platoon) and 94 (Rocket battery) are only available from 1/45. I would expect the availability dates to be same for all of these - maybe 12/43 since that is when unit 143 (T66 RL) becomes available.
b.) Unit 144 (T45 Rckt Trucks) is available from 6/44 onwards. However, the formations 112 and 114 (SP RL section/platoon) that can field it only become available from 1/45 onwards. I presume that both the unit and formations should become available at the same month (though I have no idea which one that should be).
3.) Rifle company light mortar section organisation
In formations 76 (Reinf USMC Co), 86 (USMC Co. A) and 92 (USMC Co. B) the mortar section is a unit that is directly part of the company HQ. I would suggest that it would be instead included as a separate platoon within the company, as is done for 74 (USMC company) using sub-formation 109 (Lt Mortar Sqd).
