Under the guidance of very different commanders, the 1st and 2d Marine Raider Battalions excelled when operating behind enemy lines or fighting as conventional infantrymen.

A great article! I was unaware of a 3rd and 4th Battalion being organized. I always thought the experiment had run its course after the 1st and 2nd Battalions were formed.
