Lt. Gen. David Berger's experiences in a 2018 wargame against China's forces led to significant changes in the Marine Corps' strategy and structure. Berger realized the importance of having forces already in the theater before a conflict starts, which influenced the creation of the Stand-In Forces concept and the activation of the 3rd Marine Littoral Regiment. Despite facing opposition and criticism, Berger continued to overhaul the Corps and strengthen relationships with allies and partners in the Pacific. His reforms, outlined in the Commandant's Planning Guidance and Force Design 2030, have reshaped the Marine Corps for the future.
