U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Joseph Goterhaythorn, an intelligence specialist with Combat Logistics Battalion 7, 1st Marine Logistics Group, assigned to Joint Task Force-Southern Border in support of Operation Ardent Vanguard, discusses his role in developing an innovative bracket design to secure the southern border during an interview at Fort Huachuca, Ariz., June 11, 2026. Goterhaythorn’s idea has delivered a significantly more sustainable and effective solution for securing the physical barrier. U.S. Northern Command is working side-by-side with the Department of Homeland Security and the U.S. Customs and Border Protection within narrowly defined authorities to provide unique military capabilities to protect the territorial integrity of the U.S. southern border.
