CHICAGO — Marines from Marine Corps Recruiting Command joined thousands of Chicago residents in celebrating Marine Week Chicago, a multi-day public engagement event held July 9–14 in honor of the Marine Corps’ 250th birthday.
Staff Sgt. Brianna Eisenhower never imagined she would become a match director for the Marine Corps’ combat marksmanship program, yet at 23 years old, she now leads one of the most important roles in range operations as the chief instructor of marksmanship training at Weapons Field Training Battalion (WFTBN), Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California.
