Marines ice fish with Alaskan natives
Cpl. Juarez Ordoniez, a ground communications organizational repairer with 4th Medical Battalion, 4th Marine Logistics Group, Marine Forces Reserve, sits in his snowy foxhole and ice fishes in the outskirts of Kotzebue, Alaska, April 17. Ordoniez, a native of Victorville, Calif., and a handful of other service members participating in Innovative Readiness Training Arctic Care 2013 were invited by the locals to ice fish. On his first try fishing, April 11, Ordoniez caught one sea fish, but this time he came out empty-handed.
