	2d Marine Division
		The 2d Marine Division is the ground combat element of II MEF.
		On 1 February 1941, the unit was redesignated as the 2d Marine Division.
		In the liberation of Kuwait, the 2d Marine Division attacked approximately 25 kilometers to the northwest of the 1st Marine Division.

	History for 3rd Battalion, 23rd Marines
		The Division's mission was to seize MEF Objective B (Al Jahra), to establish control of lines of communication, and to seize Division Objective 2 (vicinity of QT 5050 and QT 6055).
		In accordance with 8th Marine direction, 3/23 prepared to move further northeast to an assembly area in preparation for execution of the Al Shadadiyah MOUT operation, to be conducted on G+4.
		Third Battalion, 23d Marines were directed by 8th Marines to return to the farm complex with an infantry force, sweep the area, and then move combat engineers in to destroy the balance of remaining enemy equipment.

	HyperWar: USMC Operations in WWII: Vol III--Central Pacific Drive [Chapter IV-5]
		The 2d Marine Division was to move forward a few hundred yards along the western coast, to seize Mount Tipo Pale in the center of its zone, and on the right to capture Mount Tapotchau, some 3,000 yards forward of the line of departure.
		The NTLF commander then pointed out that, because the 27th Infantry Division had failed to advance, the two Marine divisions were forced to suspend offensive operations to prevent "dangerous exposure of their interior flanks." Finally, he directed that "immediate steps" be taken to get the stalled Army unit moving forward.
		Prospects for the 8th Marines, however, seemed excellent, for by the evening of 30 June, Army and Marine tanks had reached the front lines, supplies were arriving to sustain the regiment, and the gap along the division boundary was being patrolled by elements of the 106th Infantry.

	Breaching the Marianas: The Battle for Saipan (Introduction) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		As the weary Marines finally tried to get some sleep, all along their irregular line of foxholes, two things were very clear to them: they had forced a precarious beachhead in the teeth of bitter enemy fire, and a long, tough battle obviously lay ahead.
		The 23d Marines began as infantry detached from the 3d Division in February 1943, the same month that an artillery battalion became the genesis of the 14th Marines and engineer elements of the 19th Marines formed the start of the 20th Marines.
		In February 1966, however, it was reactivated as the lead division in the Marine Corps Reserve, and it furnished essential units to Desert Storm in the liberation of Kuwait.

		Confusion on the beaches, particularly in the 2d Marine Division area, was compounded by the strength of a northerly current flow which caused the assault battalions of the 6th and 8th Marines to land about 400 yards too far north.
		With the other two divisions already having veered their attack to the left and reached the northwest coast, the 2d Marine Division was now able to go into corps reserve, as planned, on 4 July.
		The 4th Marine Division was later awarded the Presidential Unit Citation for its "outstanding performance in combat" on Saipan and its subsequent assault on the neighboring island of Tinian.

	Outpost in the North Atlantic: Marines in the Defense of Iceland (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Field training for the 6th Marines and the other 2d Division regiments (2d and 8th Marines, infantry; 10th Marines, artillery) was conducted in the scrubby hills and arroyos of Camp Elliott where large wooden, yellow-painted, Navy designed barracks housed the Marine companies and battalions at what is now Naval Air Station, Miramar.
		Passing in review in the activation parade of the 2d Marine Division are trucks of the 10th Marines carrying twin.50-caliber water-cooled machine guns on antiaircraft mounts of the type taken to Iceland by the 6th Marines later that year.
		It was then decided to reinforce the division with a regiment from the 2d Division and the task fell to the 6th Marines (Reinforced).

	HyperWar: Across the Reef: The Marine Assault of Tarawa
		The infantry regiments of the 2d Marine Division were the 2d, 6th, and 8th Marines; the artillery regiment was the 10th Marines; and the engineers, pioneers, and Naval Construction Battalion ("Seabees") were consolidated into the 18th Marines.
		The division intelligence staff had forewarned that "naval units of this type are usually more highly trained and have a greater tenacity and fighting spirit than the average Japanese Army unit," but the Marines were surprised at the ferocity of the defenders on Betio.
		Marine light tanks made brave frontal attacks against the fortifications, even firing their 37mm guns pointblank into the embrasures, but they were inadequate for the task.

		2d MAW continues to provide aviation support to the Nation's "911" Force with aircraft that have passed their original service life, and will continue to do so as long as parts and maintainers are available to keep these aircraft safe for our Marines.
		Marines and their families may accept these frequent separations, but when they are at home station they are still seemingly not at home: the aged equipment requires intense corrective maintenance to prepare for the next deployment.
		Marines and their families will continue to reside in aging quarters even with privatization initiatives to build 100 units by FY 02.
