Reserve Motor Transport Marine Supports ITX
U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Campbell Danavan, a motor vehicle operator with Marine Air Ground Task Force 23, poses for a portrait during Integrated Training Exercise (ITX) 4-22, at Marine Corps Air-Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, Calif., July 19, 2022. Danavan, from Houma, Louisiana, repairs and maintains offshore equipment as a civilian and serves with truck company, 23rd Marine Regiment. "I get a feeling of accomplishment. I can provide Marines with chow, their water bulls, everything they need for their training; I bring them to where they need to be. To be honest it just feels nice to be able to know that they're counting on you." Marines and Sailors with MAGTF-23 maintain various civilian careers while continuing to answer their call to service in the Marine Corps Reserve. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. James Stanfield)
