Corporal Ryan Johnson, a native of San Antonio, Texas, and a guest member of the Marine Corps Shooting Team, and Sgt. Jason Wattle, a native of Eureka, California, and a member of the MCST, walk between stations during a sniper match May 9 at the Puckapunyal Military Area, Victoria, Australia, during the Australian Army Skill at Arms Meeting 2015. AASAM is an annual, international combat-marksmanship competition hosted by the Australian Army, May 6 to 22. The field sniper competition had several stations, to include an observation, panoramic, snap, and range estimation matches. MCST is comprised of 12 Marines with Marine Corps Base Quantico and Marine Rotational Force - Darwin to represent the Marine Corps in this year’s competition. The rotational deployment of U.S. Marines and presence in this competition affords an unprecedented combined training opportunity and improves interoperability with Australian Defense Forces and other militaries present at AASAM 2015.
