Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
The focus of Marine Corps Martial Arts Program (MCMAP) is the
personal development of each Marine in a team framework using a
standardized, trainable, and sustainable close combat fighting
system. As a weapon-based system, all techniques are integrated
with equipment, physical challenges, and tactics found on the
modern battlefield. The MCMAP is designed to increase the
warfighting capabilities of individual Marines and units, enhance
Marines' self-confidence and esprit de corps, and foster the
warrior ethos in all Marines. The MCMAP is a weapon-based system
rooted in the credo that every Marine is a rifleman and will engage
the aggressor from 500 meters to close quarter combat. The MCMAP:
Enhances the Marine Corps' capabilities as an elite fighting force.
Provides basic combative skills for all Marines. Applies across the
spectrum of violence. Strengthens the Marine Corps warrior ethos.
The motto of MCMAP best states the essence of the program: "One
mind, any weapon." This means that every Marine is always armed
even without a weapon. He is armed with a combat mindset, the
ability to assess and to act, and the knowledge that all Marines
can rely on one another. The Marine Corps was born during the
battles that created this country. Drawing upon the experiences of
the first Marines, we have developed a martial culture unrivaled in
the world today. This legacy includes not only our fighting prowess
but also the character and soul of what makes us unique as Marines.
This training continued to evolve up to World War II. During these
early years, the leadership and core values training that are our
hallmark today developed in concert with the martial skills.
During WW II the Command and General Staff Colleges primary mission
was to train large numbers of captains and majors to be staff
officers in battalions, brigades, divisions, and corps. To that
end, the Army provided copies of documents produced by field units
to the College. Operations orders, after action reports,
intelligence analyses, logistics appraisals, and similar documents
are in the Combined Arms Research Library documents collection. The
primary focus was documenting operations at the tactical and
operational levels of warfare. This is an action report for the 3rd
Marine Division, V Corps of operations on Iwo Jima during World War
II.
