The Table of Organization is routinely changed as the mission and changes in tactics and equipment evolves. The 20,000 man Division of yesteryear may not be seen as essential today or tomorrow. It won't alter much to the individual rifleman who will be a part of a fire team, squad and platoon. His job will remain the same. He will "close with the enemy and destroy him."

The Marine Corps reached a strength of around 760,000 men during the war. Of course, nowhere near all of these saw action. Many were in training commands in the states, in Marine detachments aboard capital warships, guarding embassies around the world, just like today. Most Marines got rotated back to the states if they survived three campaigns. Many old hands were already back in the states before Iwo Jima and Okinawa, and many of the men in those campaigns were on their third operation. By 1945 there were six divisions of Marines deployed, all infantry, all in the Pacific. The Marines maintained the Table of Organization strength of line companies at early levels, unlike the army, which had to reduce its company strength by over 20%.
