While Marine Commando formations are typically organized around the Commando Task Unit and the battalion-sized formation of infantry at its nucleus, Marine organization is designed to be scalable up to the divisional level. FLEMARFOR administers two regiments of infantry in active duty, consisting of 3 infantry battalions each; two aviation groups; as well as one regiment each of amphibians, armored reconnaissance, artillery, engineers, and combat support. Generally, units from these forces are assigned to individual Commando Task Units. All operational units are subordinated under 1 Division Marine Amphibious.

[[File:COMMANDO TASK UNIT ORBAT.png|thumb|right|Organization of a Commando Task Unit.]]
Commando Task Units are the primary operational organization of Regiment Marines Commando units. They are formed around the central unit of a single Commando battalion as the land warfare elements with detachments from other organizational units utilized to provide supporting formations. Each Regiment Marine Amphibious has enough units to provide forces for three Commando Task Units, and generally all units within a Commando Task Unit are from within the same regiment. Commando Task Units take their number from the hosting infantry battalion- for example, 4 Commando Task Unit's host infantry battalion is [[4 Battalion Marine Commando]]. CTUs deploy from naval Amphibious Ready Groups, which focus around 3 primary warships- a landing platform helicopter, a landing platform dock, and a landing ship dock.
 
CTUs comprise of 3 primary elements- the Land Warfare Element (LWE), the Air Warfare Element (AWE), and the Logistics Support Group (LSG). Land Warfare Elements are centered around a reinforced Marine Commando infantry battalion (BN MNE CDO REIN), with an attached section of amphibians, a company of armored reconnaissance, a battery of towed artillery, and a section of sappers. The Air Warfare Element is based off of a reinforced Marine Tiltrotor Squadron (MTS REIN) of 12 C11M Adjutants, with support from a 6-strong detachment of attack and utility helicopters (D5M Adder and H50M Hawk) and a 4-strong detachment of heavy helicopters (H62M Cataphract), as well as a logistics group detachment from the parent Marine Amphibious Group. The Logistics Support Group forms around a Marine Combat Support battalion and has a number of supporting assets beneath it from both Marine and Naval elements, including a supply, maintenance, landing support, engineering, medical, signals, military police, and EOD unit.

The structure of the Regiment Marines Commando is based on a

Marines from 4 Commando Task Unit conducting reconnaissance during an exercise.

Unit Types

  • Division- The largest traditionally used formation in the Regiment Marines Commando, and normally an organizational grouping.
  • Regiment- Equivalent to a brigade in other armies, a regiment is composed of 3 or more battalions and is led by a Regimental General. Marine Regiments are the largest operational combat unit utilized by the Marines.
  • Commando Task Unit- Normal operational formation of the Regiment Marines Commando. Commanded by a Colonel and operating from a naval Amphibious Ready Group, it consists of a full-strength infantry battalion reinforced with an amphibian landing section, armored reconnaissance units, artillery, and engineering formations.
  • Battalion/ Squadron (Aviation) / Group (Certain special forces units)- Composed of three to six companies, troops, or batteries, and is commanded by a Lieutenant Colonel or Colonel.
  • Company/ Troop (Light infantry/reconnaissance)/ Battery (Artillery)- Consists of 3-4 sections, and is normally lead by a Captain or Major.
  • Section/ Platoon (Armor)- Consists of 2-3 squads, and is lead by a Lieutenant or First Sergeant.
  • Squad- Consists of two or more teams and a command team. Generally lead by a Sergeant.
  • Fireteam/ Team (used interchangeably)-Consists of at least four personnel. Is generally commanded by a Lance Corporal or Corporal.

Structure

RMCCOA.png Headquarters, Marine Commando (HQ MN CDO)

Headquarters, Marine Commando (HQ MN CDO) is the command arm of the RMC and manages its oversight, organization, and operations. It is responsible for maintaining the operational capabilities for use by Joint Forces Command, and acts as an umbrella organization under which a number of other Marine agencies operate. The seniormost Marine officer is the Marine Regimental Commander, a 3-star officer, who does not exercise operational authority but maintains administrative oversight over all RMC activities and reports to the Chief of Naval Staff. The Marine Regimental Commander is a member of the Chiefs of Defense Staff, a board consisting of the seniormost officers from all branches of the [[Meridon Defense Forces].

RMCCOA.pngHeadquarters, Marine Commando

HQ MN CDO Staff consists of the Marine Regimental Commander (MRC), Marine Deputy Regimental Commander (MDRC), and Marine Regimental Sergeant Major (MRSM). The following individuals report directly to the MRC:

  • Marine Regimental Commander
    • Marine Deputy Regimental Commander
    • Marine Regimental Sergeant Major
    • Commander, 1 Division Marine Amphibious
    • Officer Commanding Marines Commando Aviation Wing
    • Officer Commanding Marines Commando Support Group
    • Officer Commanding Marines Commando Reserve
    • Officer Commanding Marine Component, Naval Special forces Group

FMF tacflash.png Fleet Marine Force (FLEMARFOR)

Fleet Marine Force (FMF or FLEMARFOR) provides for all active-duty and activated reserve Marine component formations. Fleet Marine Force provides combat-ready units to combatant commanders for operations.

While Marine Commando formations are typically organized around the Commando Task Unit and the battalion-sized formation of infantry at its nucleus, Marine organization is designed to be scalable up to the divisional level. FLEMARFOR administers two regiments of infantry in active duty, consisting of 3 infantry battalions each; two aviation groups; as well as one regiment each of amphibians, armored reconnaissance, artillery, engineers, and combat support. Generally, units from these forces are assigned to individual Commando Task Units. All operational units are subordinated under 1 Division Marine Amphibious.

2 Regiment Marine Artillery Amphibious operates as a strategic force for the employment of long-range rocket and missile precision fires at both tactical and strategic levels.

    • 12 Battalion Marine Rocket Artillery
    • 6 Battalion Marine Missile
    • 8 Battalion Marine Missile
    • 14 Battalion Marine Expeditionary Service

Commando Task Units

Organization of a Commando Task Unit.

Commando Task Units are the primary operational organization of Regiment Marines Commando units. They are formed around the central unit of a single Commando battalion as the land warfare elements with detachments from other organizational units utilized to provide supporting formations. Each Regiment Marine Amphibious has enough units to provide forces for three Commando Task Units, and generally all units within a Commando Task Unit are from within the same regiment. Commando Task Units take their number from the hosting infantry battalion- for example, 4 Commando Task Unit's host infantry battalion is 4 Battalion Marine Commando. CTUs deploy from naval Amphibious Ready Groups, which focus around 3 primary warships- a landing platform helicopter, a landing platform dock, and a landing ship dock.

CTUs comprise of 3 primary elements- the Land Warfare Element (LWE), the Air Warfare Element (AWE), and the Logistics Support Group (LSG). Land Warfare Elements are centered around a reinforced Marine Commando infantry battalion (BN MNE CDO REIN), with an attached section of amphibians, a company of armored reconnaissance, a battery of towed artillery, and a section of sappers. The Air Warfare Element is based off of a reinforced Marine Tiltrotor Squadron (MTS REIN) of 12 C11M Adjutants, with support from a 6-strong detachment of attack and utility helicopters (D5M Adder and H50M Hawk) and a 4-strong detachment of heavy helicopters (H62M Cataphract), as well as a logistics group detachment from the parent Marine Amphibious Group. The Logistics Support Group forms around a Marine Combat Support battalion and has a number of supporting assets beneath it from both Marine and Naval elements, including a supply, maintenance, landing support, engineering, medical, signals, military police, and EOD unit.

RMCCOA.png Direct Reporting Groups

While all Marine infantry battalions are both administratively and operationally subordinated to either 1 or 2 Regiment Marine Amphibious, all supporting formations are administered by Direct Reporting Groups that serve primarily as a unit to enable standardization and administrative control, but are capable of acting as a command organ in the event the RMC is activated as a division-sized formation. During all other times, Direct Reporting Groups act as administrative formations housing all similar groups of supporting assets, as such. DRGs also administrate reserve formations for operational employment. 2 Regiment Marine Artillery Expeditionary acts as its own administrative and operational grouping and does not belong to the Regiment Marine Artillery.

RMCCOA.png Marine Special Forces Group (MSFG)

Marine special operations groups are organized under the Commando Reconnaissance Regiment, which reports directly to the Marine Special Forces Group as an administrative command organ and thence to the Naval Special Forces Group. The Commando Reconnaissance Regiment also includes regular reconnaissance regiments which regularly attach to Commando Task Units.

RMCCOA.png Commando Support Group (CSG)

Commando Support Group (CSG) manages all support, logistics, and administrative formations of the Regiment Marines Commando. A large portion of the RMC's administrative needs, such as procurement, medical, educational, funerary and other such affairs are handled by naval formations.

  • Officer Commanding, Commando Support Group
    • Commando Training and Standardization Commando (CTSC)
      • MB Commando Training Center Shallowstone
      • Commando Non-Commissioned Officer Center
    • Marine Personnel Command (MPC)
    • Marine Quartermaster Corps
    • Marine Signals Command (SIGCOM)
    • Marine Civil and Public Affairs Group
