    Sgt. Maj. of the Marine Corps, Sgt. Maj. Carlton W. Kent, addresses the Marines and Sailors of Camp Pendleton at the mainside football field, June 5. Along with Sgt. Maj. Kent, the Commandant of the Marine Corps, Gen. James T. Conway, Conway addressed concerns about continuing operations in Iraq and Afghanistan, highlighting the operational shift in the Central Command area of operations. While advisory groups will continue training the fledgling Iraqi marine corps, most Marine Corps efforts will be aimed at Afghanistan in the near future, Conway said. Conway's senior enlisted advisor, Sgt. Maj. Kent, called on Marine non-commissioned officers to listen and take action regarding their junior Marines, citing an unacceptable number of suicides in recent years.
