Does this somehow tie in with Q3971 "..and frogs to destroy them."? EDIT: Moving this up front as it makes sense U.S. Navy Ship Heads to Haiti with Aid in Wake of Hurricane Tomas WASHINGTON – The amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima is sailing to Haiti with personnel and supplies to aid those left homeless by Hurricane Tomas, a spokesman for the U.S. Southern Command in Miami said Friday. Once the hurricane has passed, the Navy vessel will anchor off the Haiti coast ready to begin its aid work on land, the spokesman told Efe. The Iwo Jima, which among its 1,600 crew are 500 Marines, sailed Tuesday from Suriname on the final stage of a four-month humanitarian mission to eight countries of the Caribbean and Central America when it received orders to head for Haiti. Symbolic? Code?  I  don't know, it seemed odd to me. Race to save rare California frog beats coronavirus lockdown With an outbreak of the coronavirus threatening to shut down the border between the U.S. and Mexico, biologists on both sides agreed it was time to act after months of wary deliberations. “It’s a go,” they announced. At daybreak on March 14, two ice chests filled with 1,000 fragile red-legged-frog eggs were airlifted from Baja California’s Sierra San Pedro Martir range to a landing site where they were loaded onto a pickup truck and driven to the U.S. port of entry. Oh come on!  What the heck? Good news for five-legged frog stranded by COVID-19 crackdown Okay chances are it may be more along these lines (in regards to operations to stop human trafficking and drug cartels): Amphibious Corps[edit] Throughout the Pacific campaign during World War II, the United States Army and Marine Corps trained the new graduated recruits in joint-amphibious operations. Even the Army conducted its own facility to accommodate the training necessary, establishing the Amphibious Training Center (ATC). It was pointed out that the number of amphibious troops in the United States was inadequate and that the Marine Corps was undermanned due to expansion problems in the Navy's budget. To further complicate problems in the development of amphibious warfare amongst the Marine Corps was that they were organized for aggressive, but limited objectives, instead of extensive operations that fully relied on larger ground forces that were capable of sustaining longer in combat, due to being well-funded and equipped. A notable result of the ATC was the deployment of Engineer Amphibian Brigades (later called Engineer Special Brigades), which were largely responsible for much of the amphibious resupply doctrine still in use by the United States Marine Corps today.  The United States Navy controlled many joint units of the Army and the Marine Corps. The combined Army/Marine units consisted of two amphibious corps, the Amphibious Corps of the Pacific Fleet and of the Atlantic Fleet. These units represented the sum total of the amphibious forces of the United States, with the exception of small units of the Fleet Marine Force, which had been trained for amphibious raids. It was apparent that the United States Marine Corps did not have sufficient troops trained for the type of operation which was necessary to win the war.  To sever the problems, the United States Navy controlled two joint Army-Marine "amphibious corps", in which the Army and Marine Corps's forces were attached under:  Amphibious Corps, Pacific Fleet (ACPF) – 3rd Infantry Division and the 2nd Marine Division Amphibious Corps, Atlantic Fleet (ACAF) – 1st Infantry Division, 9th Infantry Division, and the 1st Marine Division By 1943, primarily due to disagreements between the services, the Army closed its Amphibious Training Center. Subsequently, the Marine subordinate units of the Amphibious Corps, Pacific Fleet (ACPF) were re-designated under the full command of the Marine Corps's V Amphibious Corps (VAC). In 1957, the Army ceded the amphibious operation role to the Marine Corps.
