Marines with 4th Force Reconnaissance Company, 4th Marine Division, Marine Forces Reserve, teach a class on camouflaging and ghillie suits before the students apply these principles in a clandestine movement and stalking lane during a training exercise at Tumaco, Colombia. Marines from 4th Force Reconnaissance Co. participated in a two-week mobile training team deployment to exchange skills with new Colombian Reconnaissance Marines May 29 – June 12, 2016. Augmenting the active component to fill a needed role in an ongoing mission with a partner nation is one of the ways Marine Forces Reserve remains ready to respond to any contingency the nation might face.
