U.S. Marine Cpl. Simon Joseph, a radio operator with 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division, fires a hammer pair with an M9 9 mm service pistol during a training class for the Marine Corps Marksmanship Competition at Edson Range on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, Nov. 3, 2020. The competition at Pendleton is the first in a series scheduled for Marine bases around the world as part of the 2021 Competition-In-Arms Program, which will end with a championship match on Marine Corps Base Quantico, Virginia. The program is designed to significantly enhance participants’ proficiency in the use of individual small arms by refining fundamental marksmanship skills, learning marksmanship techniques, and pushing through mental and physical boundaries in a competitive forum. Joseph is a native of Tomah, Wisconsin. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Kerstin Roberts)
