This graphic requires editing. Effective 19 June, 2015 several MARSOC units were renamed to link with the Marine Raider history. http://www.marinecorpstimes.com/story/military/2015/06/11/marsoc-units-raiders-name-10-month-delay/71072932/

  • Marine Special Operations Regiment becomes Marine Raider Regiment.
  • 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion becomes 1st Marine Raider Battalion.
  • 2nd Marine Special Operations Battalion becomes 2nd Marine Raider Battalion.
  • 3rd Marine Special Operations Battalion becomes 3rd Marine Raider Battalion.
  • Marine Special Operations Support Group becomes Marine Raider Support Group.
  • 1st Marine Special Operations Support Battalion becomes 1st Marine Raider Support Battalion.
  • 2nd Marine Special Operations Support Battalion becomes 2nd Marine Raider Support Battalion.
  • 3rd Marine Special Operations Support Battalion becomes 3rd Marine Raider Support Battalion.

Additionally, this graphic denotes the MSOSG icon as a battalion sized element, when as a Group it's icon should depict a regimental sized unit

Thank you for the update! I updated the graphic now. Please let me know if there are further changes. Noclador (talk) 16:51, 19 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
