Talk:2nd Battalion, 4th Marines

It says on the 5th Marine Regiment page that 2/4 is a part of the 5th for historic reasons. What are those? Iridany 05:32, 25 June 2007 (UTC)Reply

This question is quite old, however, "historic" was incorrect; the correct reason has been posted on the page. CobraDragoon (talk) 21:38, 19 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

I don't know who thought that "G" Company used the brevity code "Joker", but it was called "Golf" from 1999-2003 (When I was there), and they are still using it in their social media. If you can find better documentation proving me wrong, feel free to change it back --- KinnearSP

Just a little comment re the "brevity code"; perhaps "Joker" is a former or current popular nickname for this particular company, although that would not change the proper phonetic alphabet designation. I recall a US Army Air Cavalry troop during the Vietnam-era that used "Dutchmasters" as their radio call sign (because, supposedly their commanding officer favored that brand of cigars) even though the unit was actually "B" (Bravo) troop of their air cav squadron.
