With special ops, I don't see these guys rotating back into their units anytime soon. I could be wrong. But I think the statement the General made is very telling because it is obvious that these guys will be Marines, I think that General Hejlik and the Commandant are trying to speak to those who feel that this may be an end of an era for the Marine Corps as we know it.
My concern is really based on my experience working with the army where you have almost a two army dichotomy: Rangers and everyone else.
I just hope this doesn't cheapen the Marine Corps and what we have grown to know. Only time will tell.

Hejlik looks the same as a 2ndLT, only twenty years older.
