Marine Rifle Platoon
(US772)
includes Command Rifle team, Command BAR team, 9 Rifle teams with optional BARs, nine medium four-hour bases & two small two-hole bases.
The Marine rifle platoon bore the brunt of some of the hardest fighting and toughest living conditions of the entire war. The Marine esprit de corps was built on exhausting, but comprehensive, training which prepared the rifleman well for the rigours of fighting in the jungles and islands of the Pacific.
Equipped with a wide range of automatic weapons such as the M1 Rifle and M1918 Browning Automatic Rifle (BAR), the platoon could spearhead an assault landing or dig in to hold ground with equal assurance. In 1944 Marine rifle squads were organised into three 4-man fire teams, each with their own BAR automatic rifleman. This increased the combat power and flexiblity of the squads, and platoon overall.
Note: The blister pack contains enough figures to create an additional command team, so two blister packs will provide everything you need for a Marine Rifle Company HQ (with a Company Command team and a 2iC team) and two full Marine Rifle Platoons – the compulsory units needed for a Marine Rifle Company.
The BAR Teams
This blister pack contains enough BAR gunners for you to upgrade your Marine Rifle Platoon to BAR teams.
