Compared to 15th MEU?
« on: March 03, 2015, 06:47:07 PM »
I know that the 506th was created by some old 15th members, but what kind of differences exist between the two, such as mission structure, available MOS jobs, uniform regulations, etc. Thank you.

The 15th and the 506th, Do different jobs. Both equally well. The 15th is dedicated Marine unit, while the 506th is a Air Assault based infantry centric unit. Either way, I'm sure you will like whatever one you decide to choose.

SOPs are very similar, Training schedules too. It's really down to preference. The 15th uses MAGTF using a lot of supporting assests while we are based solely on Infantry.


As for the immature responses, Thats enough.
