Talk:3 Commando Brigade (United Kingdom)

message: just a suggestion, for all military unit articles, surely it should include a "role" section detailing the specific duties and combat style of the unit, i.e. commando raids etc
It's not known that 1 RIFLES will be used for 2nd line duties, so I think that writing it here is not right.

message: I want ot find out more about 3 Commando Brigade, apparently its responsible for manoeuvre formation .  Could someone explain what this is for the benefit of non-military readers. Escaper2007 14:40, 11 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: My understanding of a manoeuvre formation is that it is essentially a military grouping e.g. battalion, brigade, division, etc., that uses the characteristics of its component units to achieve a dislocation effect on the enemy. Essentially this means that they use mobility (either land, air or seaborne) to put themselves on a part of the battlefield that puts the enemy at a disadvantage due to the fact that they (the enemy) did not expect it and or are unable to bring sufficient weight of force to resist effectively and therefore allowing the formation to achieve either lodgement and or breakthrough.

message: There's some confusion in the box, with, for example, a RM capbadge instead of the Brigade Flash which should be corrected. 67th Tigers 16:23, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
