Focusing on tactical applications, the development of new and improved units, as well as looking at how training has developed over the years, we can see how SCUBA technology has had such a significant

The current amphibious concepts and capabilities of the US ensure that we are better prepared to conduct forcible entry operations than we were during the landing at Inchon, and subsequent liberation of Seoul. Amphibious concepts, such as seabasing, amphibious command and control (C2), and the Expeditionary Strike Group (ESG) allow forces to project power across domains. Proof of concept exercises like Bold Alligator continue to refine our amphibious capability to provide flexible, scalable, responsive

a command system which connected the U.S. and Britain and helped them jointly run the operation. His plan was to have five divisions act as a first wave land on the sixty-one mile long beach front. Four more divisions as well as some airborne landings would support the first wave.
