U.S. Marines with Company A, B and C, 1st Battalion, 2d Marine Regiment, receive professional military education from 2d Lt. Hanson, Platoon Commander, Company A, in front of the Administration Building on North Field, Tinian, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, on Nov. 17, 2015. The Marines discussed Operation Forager, which was very successful for the Corps, as the Japanese lost 25% of their force on Tinian on the first night of battle. The Marines receiving the class have been deployed on short notice from Fuji to notionally secure the expeditionary airfield and conduct training. The training allowed the Marines an opportunity to establish long-range communications and receive professional military education in order to ensure utilization and validation of the Marianas Islands Range Complex, improve the Marines' understanding and appreciation for unit history, and validate elements of the Alert Contingency MAGTF.
