As a young Marine, few potential duty stations come with more trepidation and anxiety than Twentynine Palms. The Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, or MCAGCC as it is sometimes called, is a sprawling military installation in its purest sense: while many military bases in the United States offer a pleasant and even domestic appearing […]
Leave it to the Marines to always want more firepower.
