Cpl. Christopher Truax, a team leader with Security Forces Company, Marine Wing Support Squadron-373, Special Purpose Marine Air Ground Task Force-Crisis Response-Central Command, participates in a live-fire and maneuver range while forward deployed, July 18, 2016. The company is made up of Marines from a variety of backgrounds outside of Marine Corps infantry. “We get to see where we’re at as a fire team,” said the food service specialist, of Horseheads, N.Y. “We also get to communicate well; focus on the sounds of each other and how each member moves.” The course of fire requires teams of Marines to engage multiple targets as they make their approach. This is intended to simulate moving toward a possible threat. SPMAGTF – CR – CC is a self-sustaining expeditionary unit, designed to provide a broad range of crisis response capabilities throughout the Central Command area of responsibility, using organic aviation, logistical, and ground combat assets.
