MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP PENDLETON, Calif. – Marines from various Military Occupational Specialites within 1st Marine Logistics Group participated in intelligence training at the Company Level Intelligence Cell course here, Feb. 20.
The purpose of this course was to give Marines a better understanding of what intelligence is and how the Marine Corps utilizes it, as well as what is expected of a company level intelligence cell Marine.
“This course is designed to teach Marines how to do some of the same things Intel Marines do, as well as how to [access] the intelligence programs used by the military now,” said Matt Willis, a CLIC course instructor. “So far they have learned data reporting using the Intel Analysis Console.”
According to Willis, the role of a CLIC Marine is to provide tactical intelligence to support their company.
“Instead of just [the intel] Marines knowing what to do [while deployed], we all have a hand in sending the data back to base or documenting routes,” said Lance Cpl. Laura Licata, military policeman, Military Police Company, Combat Logistics Regiment 17, 1st MLG.
During the course, the Marines learned how to provide intelligence through written and oral communication, conduct collection management, maintain target files and intelligence situation maps, how to journal and use records and files when recording information and conduct analysis.
“All the things we are learning here are very helpful to us,” said Licata. “Especially during deployments when there is [a small number of] Intel Marines.”
The course is two weeks long and covers a variety of subjects pertaining to the intelligence field. Marines and sailors from any MOS are allowed and encouraged to attend the course.
