Combat Engineer reflects on his service during support to ITX
U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Brandon Patrick, a combat engineer assigned to Echo Company, 4th Combat Engineer Battalion, 4th Marine Division, poses for a portrait during Integrated Training Exercise 4-22, at Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, Calif., July 22, 2022. "I've gotten out before. I got out in '07 and came back to active duty, did eight years…then continued to serve in the Reserves. I already knew from the first time that I got out that it's not so much the Marine Corps you miss; it's the Marines. There's nothing like us. Regardless of how nasty it gets, I love Marines."
