In front of the Mortuary Affairs Collection Point is a helmet and boots that honors service members who have been lost. The MACP is where the Personnel Retrieval and Processing Company is working, the Marine Reserve Company is based out of both Smyrna, Georgia and Quantico, Virginia and is the only mortuary affairs company within the Marine Corps. They are at Camp Graying, Michigan, participating in exercise Northern Strike 19.

Northern Strike 19 is a National Guard Bureau-sponsored exercise uniting service members from more than 20 states, multiple service branches and numerous coalition countries during the last two weeks of July 2019 at Camp Grayling Joint Maneuver Training Center and the Alpena Combat Readiness Training Center, both located in northern Michigan and operated by the Michigan National Guard. The accredited Joint National Training Capability exercise demonstrates the Michigan National Guard's ability to provide accessible, readiness-building opportunities for military units from all service branches to achieve and sustain proficiency in conditioning mission command, air, sea, and ground maneuver integration, together with the synchronization of fires in a joint, multinational, decisive action environment.
