Unit Histories
This page is limited to the five unit-history sections: 3rd Battalion, 5th Marines; 2nd Reconnaissance Battalion; 2nd Force Reconnaissance Company; 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing; and 26th Special Tactics Squadron. Aviation squadrons such as HMLA-269 are organized under the 2nd MAW parent page instead of appearing as separate top-level history cards.
Darkhorse lineage, infantry battalion context, weapons-company MOS lanes, amphibious employment, and campaign history.
Division reconnaissance history, amphibious reconnaissance, surveillance, patrol reporting, insertion skills, and Recon/SARC pipelines.
II MEF deep reconnaissance and force-level special operations history, including advanced insertion, dive, parachute, scout/sniper, and JTAC lanes.
Parent aviation hub. Open this page to view HMLA-269 and any future aircraft groups added under 2nd MAW.
AFSOC special tactics context for combat control, tactical air control, personnel recovery, special reconnaissance, and air-ground integration.
Clean Unit Layout
The top-level Units section is restricted to these five pages. Aviation squadrons are managed from the 2nd MAW hub page. HMLA-269 and future aircraft groups do not appear as top-level Unit History cards; they sit inside the 2nd MAW structure.
