Lance Cpl. Ned Torrico, left, amphibious assault vehicle crewman, AAV Platoon, and Lance Cpl. Ariel A. Torrico, right, tank crewman, Tank Platoon, both with Company B, Ground Combat Element Integrated Task Force, are brothers from Wesley Chapel, Florida. Ned is a reservist while Ariel is an active-duty Marine. By chance, they both chose to volunteer for the GCEITF. From October 2014 to July 2015, the GCEITF will conduct individual and collective level skills training in designated ground combat arms occupational specialties in order to facilitate the standards-based assessment of the physical performance of Marines in a simulated operating environment performing specific ground combat arms tasks.
