2nd Battalion, 7th Marines
Marine Corps ground combat operations; veteran identity and military honorsDescription
A battalion‑level Marine Corps formation identified in the material by a forearm tattoo on the deceased that marks him as a Korean War veteran. In the processed scenes the unit functions as the veteran's formal service affiliation, anchoring his claim to military honors and driving a civilian character's ethical response. The unit is presented as a conventional ground combat battalion subordinate to the Seventh (Marine Regiment), whose legacy and veteran ties inform identification, notification, and burial‑honor protocols in the story.
