    Private First Class Michael Martinez, a combat engineer with 8th Engineer Support Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, posts security in a patrol base built by the unit during their week-long survivability field exercise aboard Camp Lejeune, N.C., April 20-24, 2015. “The most important aspect is that every engineer understands the principles of the defense and how to incorporate them from individual fighting positions all the way up to a patrol base,” said 2nd Lt. Lora Thomerson, company commander for Bravo Company, and Versailles, Ky. native. “As engineers we are essentially autonomous and we can get tasked out at the lowest level to be the direct advisor on engineering within any supporting unit, so every Marine here has to have the full concept of what it takes to provide any commander with what they need to execute a mission.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
