Lance Cpl. Kevin Luskin (left), a machine gunner with 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment and Lance Cpl. Andrew Kovach, a machine gunner with 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, and students with the Advanced Machine Gunner Course, Advanced Infantry Training Battalion-East, read their maps to orient themselves with the position of the notional port they are responsible for defending as part of AMGC, aboard Camp Lejeune, N.C., May 5, 2015. Students with AMGC learned how to designate and position a machine-gun section in a defensive position after surveying the surrounding terrain. The Marines were given 45 minutes to decide the positioning of a machine-gun section to protect a notional embark port from an ambush and later had to debrief their instructors and peers on their positions and decision-making process. This is all to help the Marines become confident making decisions from the front and comfortable briefing senior leadership. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Olivia McDonald/Released)
