    U.S. Marine Corps Master Gunnery Sgt. Nicholas Capko, the provost sergeant for Marine Corps Base Quantico Provost Marshal Office, gives a brief prior to an aerial target engagement simulation on MCB Quantico, Virginia, June 24, 2025. This simulation is part of MCB Quantico’s Counter-Unmanned Aerial System’s Counter-Drone Team, which focuses on establishing standard operating procedures for the use of kinetic defeat options for law enforcement against a drone incursion. “We have some non-kinetic capabilities on the instillation already,” said Capko. “One variable of instillation protection is how to get after the drone incursions we’re starting to see an escalation of.” (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
