Marines are well known for a number of things: their strict adherence to uniform regulations, the sea bags worth of ego they carry around with them, and of course, their marksmanship. U.S. Marines train to develop competency with their weapons at greater distances than any other branch requires, as well as emphasizing closer range, higher […]
On March 10, 2015, seven Marines with U.S. Marine Corps Special Operations Command (MARSOC) died when an Army UH-60 Blackhawk helicopter crashed near Eglin, Florida. One of those men was Master Sergeant Thomas A. Saunders. The Marines and Corpsman involved in that crash became known as the Raider 7. “The Detail” is a short film […]
The helicopter’s arrival to MCAS New River enters it into the Supportability Test Plan where Marines will conduct a logistics assessment on the maintenance, sustainment and overall aviation logistics support of the King Stallion. The CH-53K is a new build aircraft with the same logistical footprint as the current CH-53E Super Stallion, but is fly-by-wire, […]
I read a lot of comments. Whenever one of my articles goes up, I do my best to hop in and read each comment beneath it, and although it’s probably bad for my health, I even sometimes read the comments on Facebook. The content we write here begs for strong opinions, and you can often […]

At the beginning of this month, five incidents involving U.S. military aircraft over the span of just one week prompted questions about the status of the readiness of the American military. The aircraft involved were as diverse as the incidents that downed them, but some trends appeared to be apparent: primarily that many of these […]
The Marine Corps Martial Arts Program has been the basic hand-to-hand combat system employed by the United States Marine Corps since 2002, and as I’ve written about in the past, it tends to get dragged through the mud by young guys with limited experience and a lot of bravado. In order to complete recruit training, […]
Since becoming a dad last November, there’s been a running joke among my friends and family about how fatherhood is making me soft. It’s a fair observation to make: I do spend a lot more time watching animated animals sing nursery rhymes now, and words like “cute” and “adorable” are now a part of my […]
The Marine Corps planned next generation of amphibious assault vehicles is set to begin production and more importantly remains under budget. The Marine Corps launched the program to replace its Assault Amphibious Vehicle, which was first fielded in 1972, with the Amphibious Combat Vehicle — billed as a better protected and faster way to carry […]
Years before I ever slipped on my first pair of boots, long before I’d ever dreamt of wearing dog tags, I knew what a Marine was. While most popular culture of the 80s and 90s used terms like “Sarge” and “soldier” indiscriminately across all branches and ranks, there was one man who stood out from […]
