Mandate for Leadership: The Conservative Promise, p. 116

The chapter supports the Force Design 2030 transformation and lists what it involves: eliminating the Marine Corps law enforcement battalions, converting at least one infantry regiment into a littoral regiment, reducing the size of remaining infantry battalions, keeping the divestment of M1 Abrams tanks, cutting most tube artillery batteries, and using the savings for rocket artillery, drones and long-range missiles.

What the document actually says

“Eliminate all USMC law enforcement battalions.”

That sentence, in plain words

Close all of the Marine Corps police units.

What this is about

The Marines are changing what kind of force they are. They want to fight from islands and ships again. So they are giving up tanks and heavy guns. The book backs that plan.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to read this page

The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
