I'm working toward scheduling an update of our lineage and honors with the History Division. Part of it is piecing together our old command chronologies, but it really only comes down to three things for each year of our history:
1. Where did we go?
2. When did we go there?
3. How many Marines did we bring?
Unlike our own internal history, they don't need a lot of detail, so having just those three things will ensure that we get the right awards in a timely manner. Also, if we get our books in order, it really helps the History Division...there's just one poor woman, Ms. Crumley, updating lineage and honors for every unit in the whole Marine Corps, so we want to make her job as easy as possible.
