In my pbem I had a USMC division wiped out at fiji with another division, I only recovered a few fragments of each by submarine, I initially tryed to regrow them at Sydney with command HQ's and plenty of supply but they grew approx 20 Inf squads per 30 day cycle. I moved it back to the West coast and it grew at 30 squads per 30 day cycle, The support staff grows at the same rate, Thus after over a year the unit is now combat ready, with 297 combat squads, and approx 330 support (far short of the total compliment), also experiance is 51, and I intend to land it on some relatively lightly defended islands to gain experiance back before thrusting into a major battle.
So in answer to your question, expect the above rates for regrowing and if you only take a fragment, expect it to take over a year to be ready again. Of course, base forces regrow faster, as do small units, the rebuild is dependant on supply, command HQ's and closeness to west coast.
In addition you have to have squads available in the pool, something the Marines don't have a lot of in early 42, but they come on later, so if you expect heavy marine action this will slow the process.
Not gamey with over a year time to rebuild. I actually lost 2 division on Fiji and 4 1/2 more were badly mauled trying to retake Noumea (unsuccessfully). Thus I am very experianced at the rebuild option. I would contact your opponent as to his thoughts on gameyness on rebuilding. It is his opinion that matters most.
Updating, the green troops come in at 50 experiance, thus a total rebuild is 50 experiance combined with what was there before for your new avg experiance, no way to train them up except in combat.
