Marines with 8th Communication Battalion, II Marine Expeditionary Force pushed themselves to their limits during the unit’s grueling three-week-long Marine Corps Martial Arts Program instructor course held aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., Sept. 15 – Oct. 3, 2014. Instructors provided the students with intense, hands-on martial arts instruction and physical conditioning in addition to a wide range of classroom instruction covering everything from human anatomy and leadership techniques, to the Marine Corps’ martial arts history. The Marines also learned how to conduct their own martial arts courses for fellow service members. At each stage of the training, students were tested with written exams and performance evaluations, which included a culminating exercise that tested their martial skills, physical endurance, and capacity to lead. The students will return to their various units around Camp Lejeune to help guide fellow service members through the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program.
