Sgt. Angelo Morice, Gunnery Sgt. James Hereim, Capt. Philip Raymond and Staff Sgt. Charles Cook are the first unmanned aerial vehicle team in the Marine Corps to laser-guide ordinance from a fixed-wing aircraft. The team assisted in landing a direct hit with a 500-pound bomb as they laser-guided it to the target after it was dropped from an F/A-18 "Hornet" here Sept. 22. After testing this new capabiity, the Marines of Marine Unmanned Aerial Squadron 1, Marine Air Control Group 38, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing (Forward), are confident in their ability to conduct similar operations in support of coalition forces on the ground.
