New challenges for the future of warfare have prompted the US Marine Corps to respond by doing three things it does best: improvise, adapt and overcome. The Marines have replaced outdated doctrine and assumptions with a fresh and bold new vision for expeditionary, amphibious and littoral operations in the coming century.
