Tradition & Teamwork

摘要

The Marine Corps is at a cross-roads in our aviation history. Those of us left from the 1970s — a few general officers, sergeants major and master gunnery sergeants — did not imagine back during the Ford administration what the world would be like today.Threats are different today. Our airplanes and weapons systems have evolved and their capabilities are truly amazing. The Marine Corps is in the middle of transitioning, rebuilding or replacing every single aircraft in our inventory to a new, better and more reliable model. Marine Corps aviation training and culture have improved and sharpened.
