Synopsis
During World War II, the United States Marine Corps (USMC) evolved into a powerful multi-division force, playing a central role in the Pacific theater. Among its lesser-known units were the Paramarines and the Raiders., A richly illustrated guide to the rare uniforms and gear of WWII's elite Marine Raiders and Paramarines. During World War II, the United States Marine Corps (USMC) evolved into a powerful multi-division force, playing a central role in the Pacific theater. Among its lesser-known units were the Paramarines and the Raiders.The Paramarines, the Marine parachute troops, were formed in 1942, with the first operational unit taking part in the Guadalcanal and Tulagi battles. Though their only combat jump occurred in southern France with an OSS unit, they saw action as infantry in the Solomons Campaign before being disbanded in 1944.The Raiders, modeled after the British Commandos, were a hard-hitting assault force trained to strike swiftly from any location. The initial group trained in Scotland became the foundation of the 1st and 2nd Raider Battalions. Pioneers in camouflage, they used black-dyed shirts and trousers, sprayed their green uniforms, and crafted helmet covers from burlap and netting.In this book, Jim Moran, a collector and researcher, delves into the uniforms and gear used by these elite units. Illustrated with over 200 photos, including close-ups of surviving items, it offers a detailed guide to their distinctive equipment. Supported by the US Marine Corps Historical Center, this work serves as an essential reference for collectors, historians, and enthusiasts., Raiders were the First Marine Units to Utilise Camouflage Clothing and had many Items of Bespoke Equipment and Weaponry. Both the Stiletto and Collins No. 18 Fighting Knives would become Associated with the Raiders Who, "Carried Machine Guns like Pistols and a Knife that was Tempered in Hell". The Raider Battalions were Disbanded in 1944. Parachute Troops - Known During WW2 as Paramarines - were Formed in 1941 and as with the Raider Battalions Disbanded in 1944, Eventually Seeing Action and Serving with Distinction as Infantry. Of the Four Battalions Formed Initially, Only the First Three were Operational in that Period. During their Brief Existence, the Parachute Units were Issued with Unique Pieces of Uniform and Equipment in Addition to the Usual '782 Gear'.
