How Master Gunner Training Improves Unit Readiness

摘要

The company-level master gunner serves an important function in maintaining unit readiness. The foundation for the master gunner's success is set at the Master Gunner School, located at Fort Benning, GA, part of the Maneuver Center of Excellence.
