I wanted to ask what type vehicle they were in? Why don't the Marines at least have Bradleys?

Not in their MTO&E, they are intended to be light and the amphibious assault vehicles are as close to Bradleys as they get (even the Army is going away from heavy units, with the new reorganization). 14 in one vehicle is too much of a target taking into account the tactics Haji is using.
