Which company conducts amphibious reconnaissance, surveillance, and limited raids in support of MAGTF?

• A. Force Reconnaissance Company
• B. MCISU
• C. Radio Battalion
• D. Civil Affairs Group

Answer: (A)

Specialized reconnaissance for the MAGTF is provided by the Force Reconnaissance Company. This unit is trained to perform amphibious reconnaissance, continuous surveillance, and limited direct-action raids in support of the MAGTF commander. The aim is to gather timely, high-quality intelligence from littoral and inland areas and to strike or disrupt enemy capabilities when necessary, all in a way that enables the larger Marine force to maneuver effectively. The other units focus on different primary tasks—communications, civil-military operations, or other intelligence functions—and do not specialize in the amphibious recon and limited raid role described.
