    Marine Rotational Force - Darwin

    U.S. Marine Cpl. Shemar Gatling with Air Combat Element, Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, takes part in training at Nackeroo Airfield, Bradshaw Field Training Area, Northern Territory, Australia, Aug. 10, 2020. Gatling is a native of Charleston.

    “I’m a food service specialist. Basically, I provide chow to everybody. Food service plays a big role. Everybody wants to eat, everybody needs chow. When you wake up in the morning, after you get ready for work the first thing you’re thinking is chow. That’s the first thing you’re thinking, especially if it’s the first meal of the day. You don’t want to do nothing if you don’t eat.”

    During the extended training, MRF-D’s ACE made history by launching an RQ-21A Blackjack into flight, from Australian soil, for the first time ever. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Harrison Rakhshani)
