Talk:1st Battalion, 3rd Marines

message: If awards ar mentioned the numer of killed or wounded would be also a good number to get a balance between heroic fighting and the price to be paid.--Stone 11:01, 21 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: For my part I dont need this articles at all. Are the numbers not available on the net or are they security issue in the US?--Stone 08:46, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Casualties are not broken down by Battalion for battles.  The only true way to find out individual unit casulaties would be to research the actual unit histories on file at the Marine Corps museum.  Don't know if that is only available in Quantico or if it is on line.--Looper5920 08:56, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It seems that large parts of the "WW2" section have been mostly copied from globalsecurity.org. These sections have a "citation needed" tag. I am still quite new, I have no experience in military unit research so I wouldn't know how to fix these sections. There seems to be some discussion on whether to use globalsecurity.org as a source, but I do not see any consensus, but it seems to lean towards reliable. Here and here are previous discussions on the reliability. 
Due to these being almost exact copies from globalsecurity.org, copyright may apply  and this page seems to breach it.
These parts seem to have been added at the start of the article. Would it be best to add the source? Hope someone who does have knowledge in this field is willing to pick this up? or due to the copyright remove all copied text?
