It seems that all the news dispatches talk about are the Marines in Kuwait. The Marines are firing arty into Iraq. The Marines are taking incoming scuds. The Marines are entering Iraq. What about the mechanized and armored units over there? How about the 101 Airmobile? I have the feeling that while the Marines are knocking on the front door, everybody else is going around to the back door. Or in terms of Sun Tzu, the Marines are the ordinary force, and everybody else is the extraordinary force.
If you’re interested in this sort of thing, the Navy maintains a site full of info on their systems: Navy Fact File.
The Airforce calls their info Fact Sheets.
Really, those are the best sources of info; the independents grab their info from those sources plus paste and cut from DOD and contractor press releases.
