MACS-2 heads to WTI Pfc. Samantha Torres Staff Writer

“The Eyes of the MAGTF” left Marine Corps Air Station Beaufort to support the Weapons and Tactics Instructor Course, March 25.

Marines with Marine Air Control Squadron 2 participate in the exercise to support WTI students and work in a field environment.

The mission of the unit is to provide navigational assistance to friendly aircraft and provide continuous allweather, radar, and air traffic control services to friendly aircraft.

The purpose of WTI is to produce subject matter experts – qualified and experienced instructors who can disseminate weapons and tactics training and information as it relates to aviation within each Marine Corps

unit.

“WTI is the Marine Corps’ culminating air exercise and is a Military Occupational Specialty producing school,” said 1st Lt. John Morris, an air traffic control officer. “Whatever the students in the course plan, we are there to help.” see

April 3, 1945: On Okinawa, Marines of the III Amphibious Corps continued to make good progress all along their front, clearing Zampa Misaki and seizing the Katchin Peninsula, thus effectively cutting the island in two. By this date, III AC elements had reached objectives thought originally to require 11 days to take.

Expeditionary operations; Marines teach non-lethal tactics MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. -- The sun is beating down on a large, open field of grass and tangled weeds. Short, deafening blasts cut through the sounds of M203 and M32 grenade launchers firing. Marines charge towards enemy forces behind a moving wall of transparent riot shields, guarding themselves from blue-body practice grenades that are flying tovwards them.

Expeditionary Operations Training Group Marines with II Marine Expeditionary Force train unit after unit, preparing them for future deployments. For two weeks, Marines undergo a variety of training at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, where they learn to use weapons such as the M203 and M32 grenade launchers, flash-bang grenades, oleoresin capsicum spray, stun guns, and foam batons.

A group of approximately 70 Marines with Battery and Golf Co., 2nd Battalion, 6th Marines, fired off their grenade launchers at dummy targets with 40mm sponge grenades and threw flash-bang grenades before gearing up for their next mission of the day.

Lance Cpl. Robert Wood, a rifleman with 2/6, said that he found EOTG’s training helpful for future operations during the unit’s upcoming deployment to the Mediterranean with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit.

During their training, the Marines learned the five steps of mechanical advantage control holds, and applied them during exposure to oleoresin capsicum spray, and as basic defensive techniques when faced with their simulated enemies.

Recon Marines perfect ITV insertion capabilities Pfc. Alvin Pujols Defense Media Activity

CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. -- When your job is to conduct reconnaissance missions, being proficient in different methods of insertion and extraction can mean the difference between mission accomplishment and failure. On March 15, Marines from Force Company, 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division, conducted one method of aerial insertion from a CH-53E Super Stallion during a reconnaissance and surveillance training exercise aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif.

With 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing supporting Force Company with CH-53s, reconnaissance Marines were inserted with M1161 Internally Transportable Vehicles, a jeeplike vehicle with a collapsible roll cage and mounted weapons designed to fit inside helicopters.

With the wind from the helicopter’s blades whipping dust and vegetation into the air, the Marines barreled out of the aircraft and assumed a secure position as the ITV rolled down the ramp. The Marines rushed to assemble the collapsible canopy and mount their weapon systems on the ITV as the aircraft withdrew from the drop zone. After securing each weapon system, ranging from the M240G medium machine gun to the MK-19 grenade launcher, the

Marines established radio communications.

1st Reconnaissance Battalion provides task-organized forces in order to conduct amphibious reconnaissance, ground reconnaissance, and specialized insertion and extraction. Force Company provides such capabilities as well, along with deep ground reconnaissance, surveillance, battlespace shaping and limited-scale raids.

The Marines are building their insertion capabilities with the ITVs during a routine reconnaissance and surveillance mission, said Staff Sgt. Jonathan R. Ingersoll, a field radio operator with the company. When a reconnaissance team brings intelligence back to their battlefield commander, they give him a detailed report of what is waiting for him and his Marines.

“It took roughly four minutes for each of the teams to evacuate the helicopter and configure the canopy and weapon system on the ITV,” said Master Sgt. Vincent A. Marzi, the operations chief for the company.

When conducting reconnaissance and surveillance missions, Marines with Force Company can be inserted with the ITVs, which is only one of many methods of insertion. From there, the Marines would separate from the main force and continue their insertion on foot with only their personal equipment.

Being inserted and conducting recon-

naissance is no easy task, but we make sure our Marines can be ready in minutes, said Ingersoll.

“In reality, each team would be inserted simultaneously,” said Capt. Lawrence W. Ault, the executive officer of Force Company. “Our job as recon Marines is to finish the mission as quickly and efficiently as possible.”

Every few minutes the Force Company Marines conducted radio checks, made sure each ITV’s systems were in order, and conducted security sweeps. The Marines of Force Company know that neglecting these procedures could end a mission — disastrously.

While the Marines conduct similar training events regularly, the command always pushes their Marines to excel beyond what is expected, said Marzi.

“Exceeding beyond the limitations set down by others shall be my goal. Sacrificing personal comforts and dedicating myself to the completion of the reconnaissance mission shall be my life,” reads the Reconnaissance Marine Creed.

With the words from their creed fueling them, recon Marines push toward perfection in their craft. With the first phase of their training complete, the Marines continue to find new and inventive ways to support the 1st Marine Division on the ground.

Marine Corps shows off versatility to Lake Elsinore during exercise Lake Elsinore, California -- As Marines woke up to mist on their tents and fog on the lake, members of the Lake Elsinore community set up their chairs to observe the bridging missions the Marines would undertake over the course of the day.

Nearly 100 Marines with Bridge Company, 7th Engineer Support Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group showed off their versatility by conducting a combined water and land bridging operation as part of a readiness evaluation at Lake Elsinore, California, March 24, marking the first time that an Improved Ribbon Bridge was built as a continuous span across a wet gap since 2002.

“Three generations of Marines have gone through without this continuous span from shore to shore,” said Cpl. Kris Wickert, bridge master for operations platoon, Bridge Company. “It shows that we can span any wet or dry gap in the world in a moment’s notice.”

Marines built an improved ribbon bridge crossing more than 400 feet across a channel of the lake using bridge erection boats to move, what look like, pieces of a puzzle.

Upon completion, Marines drove vehicles and equipment across the IRB to assemble the medium girder bridge over a 53-foot dry gap on the adjacent shoreline. Here the Marines didn’t receive help from boats, but instead had to work together to manually lift hundreds of pounds of steel.

The month of training leading up to this exercise gave the Marines the skills necessary to finish the bridges that were each completed in about 3 hours. Each bridge is designed to take crossings from vehicles and cargo up to 140,000 lbs. The mission served as a good baseline for the Company’s ability to bridge a water and land gap if it were deployed. Lake Elsinore offered the only geographic location within 250 miles of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton with a site capable of conducting both types of bridges at the same time.

“This was the first time I’ve done it and I was impressed with how quickly and flawlessly we executed the plan,” said Wickert.

“We train like we fight so just because we would no longer be in Southern California doesn’t mean the [1st Marine Expeditionary Force] wouldn’t come across a set of wet or dry gaps,” said Capt. Andrew M. Hicks, company commander for Bridge Company, 7th ESB. “Should this be the case the Marines of Bridge Company, 7th ESB are trained in the aspects of bridging and are ready to provide mobility support to the MEF.”

Ospreys land on Korean Assault Ship

State of Readiness: Hours from actions on objective Cpl. Anna Albrecht 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit

USS ESSEX, At sea -Three MV-22B Ospreys land on San Clemente Island, Calif., simultaneously. A dust storm swarms around the Marines as they run out of the aircraft and set up 360 degrees of security, waiting for their next move.

As the birds fly away, squads break away to their designated objectives to secure two towns on the island. Each Marine within Lima Company, Battalion Landing Team 3rd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment, knows the scheme of maneuver; where they are supposed to be, what to do if they have a casualty and when they are providing cover for their fellow Marines.

Several moving parts go into each raid and the plan constantly changes throughout the mission.

This was the scene on March 22, as Marines with BLT 3/1, 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, executed a raid on San Clemente Island during Composite Training Unit Exercise, or COMPTUEX.

This raid was only a fraction of the training the Marines have done, and will do, in preparation for the MEU’s deployment.

U.S. Marine Cpl. Aaron Telles, a machine gun squad leader with 2nd platoon, Lima Co., BLT 3/1, explained the process they go through up to actually performing a mission. He said when they receive the warning order, they are immediately making sure they have all the proper gear and figuring out details such as how they are going to mark things like buildings and the lead element.

“Typically, the squad leaders will get together with the platoon commander and he will say what we have to do and generally the direction he wants us to do it,” Telles said.

“From there, the [squad leaders] say how they are going to implement that plan.”

After the initial plan is laid out, the Marines go over rehearsals and work out the mission as an entire company.

“When we do rehearsals, we look at the mission, see what we’re going to have to do, such as room clearing, and we’ll

practice everything from basic two-man clearing of an open door to more complex things such as stairwells, multiple rooms, and multiple entries,” Telles said. “We go from A-to-Z in the most thorough manner possible based on the mission set.”

In the final hours before they leave for the mission, each individual Marine is prepared with all the proper gear, knowledge and training.

Telles explained that at that point, his focus moves to the well-being and safety of the Marines in his squad and how he is going to adapt and employ them in the mission.

The hours, days, and months the Marines spend together pay off because they know each other in and out. They can accurately predict what each other will do next and what they’re thinking.

“Everybody knows how each one of us move, we know how each one of us think,” Telles said. “We’re very close, very close knit.”

That bond the Marines form throughout the time spent living and training together gives

them a different mindset while implementing the plan of attack.

“I don’t care how much ammo these guys can carry, I don’t care how good they are behind the machine gun,” Telles said. “The ‘good enough’ is when they can keep each other safe and I don’t have to call anyone’s mom [with bad news].”

When the Marines land back onto the USS Essex (LHD 2), they don’t stop training. While the mission is still fresh in their minds they share what they experienced during a debrief.

There, they learn more about the enemy and about themselves. Capturing those lessons helps them improve each time, making them even more prepared for the next mission.

These Marines will continue training and improving during COMPTUEX. Their next at sea period, Certification Exercise (CERTEX), they will face more challenging scenarios. By the time they leave for deployment, Lima Company, and all the other Marines and Sailors of the MEU will be ready for anything that comes their way

Marines complete mountain warfare training in South Korea

Cpl. Drew Tech

Defense Media Activity

POHANG, South Korea -- Marines are thrill seekers, known for running toward the sounds of chaos.

It’s in their blood to adapt and overcome all obstacles in their way. This is what they are made of. It is who they are.

If there’s a river, they’ll cross it. If there’s a mountain, they’ll climb it. If there’s a rigorous five day mountain warfare training course in South Korea, they’ll conquer it.

Okinawa based U.S. Marines did just that by completing the mountain warfare training course March 16-20 at the 1st Republic of Korea Marine Division Mountain Warfare Training Center in Pohang, South Korea.

The U.S. Marines are from 81 mm Mortars Platoon, Weapons Company, 3rd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment all currently assigned to 4th Marine Regiment under the unit deployment program as well as the 5th Air Naval Gunfire Liaison Company, III Marine Expeditionary Force Headquarters Group, III MEF, and III MEF Band.

The instructors are Republic of Korea Marines with Mountain Warfare Training Unit, 1st ROK Marine Division.

The U.S. Marines were tested daily with constant physical training while learning different methods on how to rappel, tie knots, cross rope bridges, climb rock walls and fast rope.

The training is part of Korea Marine Exchange Program 15-14.2, a combined training exercise designed to enhance the Republic of Korea and U.S. alliance, promote stability on the Korean Peninsula and strengthen their military capabilities

and interoperability.

“Part of our job as 5th ANGLICO is to partner with the ROK Marine Corps if we were to operate here on the peninsula,” said U.S. Marine Lt. Col. Josh K. Gelerter, the commanding officer with 5th ANGLICO. “Part of doing that is being able to maneuver with them in whatever form of maneuver they take. This week was about learning another form of maneuver for us to get to the fight if duty should call and we need to go to the fight with the ROK Marine Corps.”

The training was an exciting way to build confidence with new skills, according to many of the Marines.

“This is my first time training in Korea and I think this is a great opportunity for us to be here building this relationship with the ROK Marines,” said U.S. Marine Pfc. Zach C. Hagestad, a fire support man with 5th ANGLICO, from Minneapolis, Minnesota. “I think I learned a lot this week and I gained a lot of confidence in myself doing these kinds of things.”

The Korean Marines go through four weeks of training before they can earn a spot in the Mountain Warfare Training Unit, and their training continues well beyond the day they become instructors.

“These instructors were absolutely phenomenal,” said U.S. Marine Gunnery Sgt. James W. Clingan, a fire support man with 5th ANGLICO, from Milford, Delaware.

“They were some of the, if not the most, disciplined cadre of instructors I’ve ever seen in my military career. They are very professional and very proficient at what they do, and it shows in their instruction.”

This exercise familiarizes U.S. Marines with the Korean Peninsula and builds upon an existing relationship.

“It’s fun training the U.S. Marines,” said Korean Marine Sgt. Sung Ho Ahn, a mountain warfare instructor. “We like the energy they bring to the training. It’s always just an honor. We know that U.S. Marines are the strongest in the world and we respect that.”

KOREAN PENINSULA -- A U.S. Marine Corps MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft made its first ever landing on the flight deck of a Republic of Korea Navy amphibious assault ship off the coast of the Korean peninsula, March 26.

The Osprey departed from the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) nearby and landed on the ROK ship Dokdo (LPH-6111).

“The Osprey is our primary (assault support) aircraft,” said U.S. Marine Maj. Bryon DeCastro, Marine Forces Korea liaison with the ROK 7th Air Force stationed in Osan, ROK. “Given our longstanding alliance, it only makes sense to get (the Osprey) on board with the ROK ships.”

The aircraft is with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 (Reinforced), the aviation combat element for the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit.

The landing was the first event in a week-long bilateral exercise called Korean Marine Exchange Program 15.1. The program promotes the two militaries working cooperatively on a range of operations to strengthen alliances and increase military capabilities between the two nations.

“Landing our Ospreys on the (Dokdo) for the first time gives us more flexibility in how we operate together and how we integrate our forces,” said Maj. David Shearman, a native of Hillsdale, Michigan, who co-piloted the Osprey onto the ROKS Dokdo. “The Osprey landing was for integration and so future plans can be implemented easier.”

During KMEP 15.1, approximately 2,200 U.S. Marines and 2,000 U.S. Navy personnel will work alongside 3,500 ROK Marine and Navy forces. The militaries will integrate key staff planners in order to improve their combined amphibious capabilities during several training events, both at sea and ashore. The Ospreys are scheduled to play a major role in support of the exercise.

Since replacing the CH-46E on Okinawa in June 2013, the MV-22B Osprey has supported previous ROK-US exercises like SSang Yong ‘14 to transport troops and logistics. Landing on the ROKS Dokdo further demonstrated the versatility of the aircraft while laying the groundwork for future exercises.

The Marines of 31st MEU are embarked aboard the forward-deployed USS Bonhomme Richard, USS Green Bay (LPD 20) and USS Ashland (LSD 48).

17.75K: Marine Corps Marathon Prince William County, Virginia -- Runners gathered and warmed up amidst blustery winds and temperatures below freezing awaiting the start of the Marine Corps 17.75K race to begin in Prince William County, Virginia, March 28.

The unique distance of 17.75 kilometers is derived from the establishing year of the Marine Corps. The 11.03-mile course winds through wooded forest alongside steams surrounded by the wildlife of Prince William Forest National Park.

Runners began the race at 7 a.m. and were encouraged along the route by cheering family members and supporters “I choose to run this race because I want to run the Marine Corps Marathon again,” said James “Jimmy” Sosinski the first place finisher of the race with a time of one hour, nine minutes and five seconds.

More than 2000 runners from more than 30 states participated in the run and received an “access granted” pass that allows runners of this race to sign up for the Marine Corps Marathon which is slated for October 2015. Upon finishing the race, runners were presented a medal by a Marine along with a certificate to register for the marathon.

“I’ve grown up near the U.S. Naval Academy, and I’m not one to enlist,” said Anne Calverly a runner from Annapolis, Maryland. “I want to show support [for the military] in any way I can.”

Trophies were awarded to the three top male and female finishers during a brief ceremony. The top three male finishers were: Sosinski, Jason Van Horn the second place male finisher from Bristow, Virginia and Patrick Baier the third place finisher from Rockville, Maryland. The top three female finishers were: Anna Bernal, first place female finisher, from Alexandria, Virginia, Kaelan Dickinson, second place finisher, from Washington, D.C. and Tracy Cermak, third place finisher, from Rockville, Maryland.

This is the first time in two years MACS-2 will participate in the biannual exercise.

“This will be the first time taking the [Next Generation Mobile Tracking System], the new weather equipment that the Marine Corps adopted,” said Cpl. Jesse Borcina, an Aviation Meteorlogical Equipment Technician.

The NEXGEN has improved forecasting capabilities and environmental control units, is easier to transport, and reduces human error and safety hazards.

Technology plays an important part in our nation’s defense, and having the ability to use the most advanced technology will help Marines meet their mission objectives in the most efficient way.
