Camp Pendleton expeditionary force embraces cyber warfare in new era on the battlefield

CAMP PENDLETON — In the new age of 21st-century warfare, law enforcement Marines will scour battlefields for the enemy’s cellphones and forensic intelligence, drones will help infantry Marines land ashore out of sight of the adversary, and radio operators will use frequencies to disrupt the enemy’s hacking abilities.

These innovations are part of a new command known as the 1st Marine Expeditionary Force’s Information Group that on Thursday, July 6, made history at Camp Pendleton by becoming the first of its kind among the Corps’ marine expeditionary forces. The transition from the 1st Marine Headquarters Group — which was in an administration and logistics role — is expected to go Marine Corps-wide, military officials said.
