Battalion Landing Team (T CG2.1)
A Marine infantry battalion plus everything attached to it, and the unit of organization the whole Tarawa campaign runs on. Each BLT gets assigned to one Entry Area before setup, and every unit in it has to come ashore there. Only one BLT lands per Entry Area per CG Date, and units can’t transfer between BLTs except for a short list of specialists.
