Readiness

U.S. Marine Corps martial arts instructor trainers with 4th Marine Aircraft Wing, Marine Forces Reserve, lead a hike during a culminating event at Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base New Orleans on May 23, 2019. The culminating event challenged the Marines’ physical, mental and character discipline that was taught throughout the 14 training days in Martial Arts Instructor Course. To increase readiness and to support the total force, Reserve and active Marines with MARFORRES participate in the MAIC. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Jose Gonzalez)
