Marines with Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, storm a room taking casualties, chosen by instructors, Aug. 20 at the Central Training Area during a military operations on urbanized terrain training event. “This training is important for the Marines in a case we have to assault a village or objects are blocking our vehicles path,” said Pfc. Andrew Avis. “It teaches Marines everything that is vital to (close-quarter combat) as well as patrolling.” Avis is a Dallas, Texas, native, and machine gunner with Weapons Co., 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, currently assigned to 4th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, under the unit deployment program.
