    Take the piece above on Distributed Arty, that piece alone took about 3yrs to get right.
    • Standardizing Coy-Level Intel & Ops Cells-CLIC & CLOC.
    • Distributed Comms DTCS- PDAs that allow Intra-Squad/Plt Comm & Voice/Data reachback of 250miles.
    • The reorganization of the Rifle Coy to include a Scouts & Recon Section for CAS & Indirect Fires as well as close-in reconnaissance.
    • Standardizing training in tactics, leadership, & responsibility that allows for dispersion & independence on all levels.
    • Streamlining a Coy MAGTF HQ & data equipment to be Expeditionary-The "Expeditionary Forward Operations Base, ExFOB".
    • The UAV & UGV components are also critical-the MV-22 will be centrally located w/the BN HQ, the Cargo-UAS will be w/the Coys along some Coys having access to the CH-53s or Naval Lift.
    • Not every Coy MAGTF will be outfitted the same, it will depend on their region and mission.

    There are a lot of moving parts but i'm half sleep. Look up Limited Objective 4 (LOE 4) Kahuku, Hawaii, EMO- Enhanced MAGTF Operations, ECO- Enhanced Company Operations, you should find enough info.
