There is no good answer to this question. A detachment is simply a portion of a unit. It can also be called a party or working party although the word "party" suggests smaller groups usually less than 30. A detachment can range anywhere between 2 or 200 or 2000. It all depends on what task they are accomplishing, how many Marines are available, and how many Marines are needed.
