U.S. Marines with 3d Marines redesignate to become the 3d Marine Littoral Regiment aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, March 3, 2022. The 3d Marine Littoral Regiment will serve as a key enabler for joint, allied, and partnered forces, will integrate with naval forces, and will enable multi-domain maneuver and fires within contested spaces. The transition of 3d Marines to 3d MLR is in accordance with Force Design 2030 and one of the first major steps to facilitating a shift as the Marine Corps divests in legacy capabilities and builds a force that is optimized for operations envisioned within the Commandant’s Planning Guidance.
