About

A battle group landing team is the basic task organization used as a nucleus of an infantry division landing team in an amphibious operation. It may however, be employed as a semiindependent or independent landing team. In either role it will normaíly employ both air and water ship-to-shore mobility means, i.e., assault craft (landing craft and amphibious vehicles) and aircraft, primarily helicopters, operating from naval ships. The ground and air- mobile tactics and techniques employed after landing are substan- tially the same as those used in normal ground warfare, but modi- fied during the period of joint operations to integrate joint com- mand and control facilities and multiple Service resources.
