Motor Transport The mission of the BLT Motor Transport Section is to provide tactical and logistical motorized transportation in support of the BLT. The MT section is also responsible for the second echelon maintenance of all vehicles. There are eleven vehicle operators, five mechanics, one MIMMS clerk, one MT chief and one MTO in the section. Motor T is capable of most field expedient repairs and small vehicle recoveries. Contact teams are either dispatched to the location of any vehicle and driver in need of assis- tance or attached to separate units.

QL Headquarters And Service Company Back Row: LCpl Dominguez, LCpl Werner, Sgt Bledson Front Row: LCpl Silveira, 1stLt Walker, GySgt Brooks, LCpl'Boltin Need any non-combat support? If so, H 8z S Company does it all. Need a machinegun repaired? How about an administrative action request? Do you have a pay problem that needs correcting? Want motor transport support? How about some 782 gear? OK, no more 782 gear but one out of five isn't too bad! In fact, anything that the Battalion or the Companies do require H 8: S Company participation and support. Our Cooks have the ability to prepare a seven course Marine cuisine meal and our Corpsmen have the expertise necessary to heal,' you afterwards. Our Special Services section ensures that you always get beer rations and entertainment and our religious support section provides you with the forgiveness for partaking. Our Headquarters Element or Battalion Staff is the brains of the organization and after spending a day with one of the staff sections, such as the Intelligence Officer, you will see that not all the brains possess intelligence. During the LF6F deployment we were also privileged to have a platoon from 2d Recon Battalion, 2d Combat Engineer Battalion, 2d Tank Battalion and a section from Anti- Tank Company. These combat support attachments maintained a very fast-paced training schedule. They could never be found and were always at training . We know that they were onboard the ship, however, because they all signed the liberty log. Thus with such stalwart means as these, H 81 S Company guided BLT 216 around the Mediterranean.

Comm umca tions Pla toon The Communications Platoon provides the Commander with the means to exert personal influence in the exercise of command and control of the assigned forces, supporting fires and combat service support over larger areas than would otherwise be possible. In order to accomplish this task, the platoon is organized into four sections: Headquarters, Radio, Wire and Maintenance. These sections combine to establish a communications system that is reliable, secure, flexible and meets the needs of the Commander in the tactical situation. Communications dominate warg broadly considered they are the most important single element in strategy, political or military. - Admiral Mahan
