Marine Training

the new Marine Corps Forces, Special Operations Command’s Foreign Military Training Unit is doing Foreign Military training. I still do not agree with the need for ‘Marine Corps Forces, Special Operations Command’ but I am hearing good things about the capabilities it brings to the SOCOM. But the MAGTAF is still a key part of the projection of force for America.

As part of this graduation exercise, the Marine trainers need to shape this rowdy group into a tight-knit fighting force. Normally, it could take months to accomplish.

But the clock is ticking for the Marines because they’re under orders to expand the nation’s special-operations forces and bolster foreign internal defenses. Col. Michael N. Peznola, the unit’s commander, said they would “work with partner nations . . . to help them help themselves.”

This sounds like the Army training….heh, maybe sometime I will have to change my opinion but not yet.
