Sergeant Jason Wattle, a native of Eureka, California, and a member of the Marine Corps Shooting Team, sights in through his M40A5 sniper rifle 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. It consists of service pistol, rifle, sniper rifle, machine gun, and physical competitions. The 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.
