The Beach Party is the Navy component of LFSP and includes which elements?

• A. Beach Party Headquarters, Beach Party Team(s), Beach Support Unit, and LCAC Cushion Landing Zone Control Team
• B. Shore Party
• C. Helicopter Support Party
• D. Naval Beach Group

Answer: (A)

The on-beach, Navy component of the Landing Force Support Party organizes and executes the assault on the shore. It comprises four elements that work together to control the beach and sustain the operation: a Beach Party Headquarters, which serves as the on-beach command node coordinating with shore, air, and landing-force elements; Beach Party Teams, the forward detachments carrying out the on-beach tasks such as guiding LCACs, marking lanes, and assisting with logistics; a Beach Support Unit, providing the necessary logistics, maintenance, and support to keep the on-beach effort moving; and an LCAC Cushion Landing Zone Control Team, which manages the LCAC landing zones, ensuring safe, efficient landings by controlling the cushion area and coordinating the arrival of the landing craft. These roles together define the Beach Party as the Navy component of LFSP. Other options refer to different parts of the amphibious organization and do not describe the on-beach Navy element.
