I was reading a series of articles and letters in Marine Corp Gazette earlier this year about squad size. The 3 fire team squad was adopted in March 1944 and remains to this day (other weapons substituting for the BAR as squad automatic after the late '50's of course).
IIRC that squad organization was suggested by Evans Carlson.
