    U.S. Marine Sgt. Joseph Mussulin, a squad leader with Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 9th Marine Regiment and 24-year-old native of Susanville, Calif., points to a mock improvised explosive device for Sgt. John Cosh, a platoon sergeant with Golf Co., 2/9 and 30-year-old native of Pine Bush, N.Y., to investigate with a sickle during an IED training course here, March 9. Marines with 2/9, 2nd Bn., 6th Marines, 3rd Bn., 3rd Marines, 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Bn., and Regimental Combat Team 5 attended the course as part of a noncommissioned officer symposium hosted by RCT-5. The symposium allowed the NCOs from Marjah, Nawa, Garmsir and Khan Neshin districts to share their experiences, solutions to common issues they face on the battlefield and discuss current Marine Corps affairs.
