30 Commando Information Exploitation Group – is the new name for the Royal Marine Brigade Headquarters Battalion, of the UK Landing Force Command Support Group, which was previously known as HQ & Signals Squadron RM.    The unit resources include communications, information operations, information systems, intelligence, surveillance, and Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance.     The unit's title harks back to the original 30 Commando RM (which in turn became 30 Assault Unit RM), formed in 1941.    This unit was tasked to move ahead of advancing Allied Forces, or to undertake covert infiltrations into enemy territory by land, sea or air, to capture much needed intelligence, in the form of codes, documents, equipment or enemy personnel
