Combat hunter tracks prey: 3rd Recon Marines learn techniques of predator

Marines with 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, scan the area around them for any evidence from their prey during a combat hunter course Jan. 28.

Footprints and skid marks are just one of multiple ways a tracker can identify whether or not someone has recently been through an area. Marines with 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, received the combat hunter course Jan. 28, a requirement for all units that will be outside the wire while in combat.

Sgt. Kyle O. Kerr, a combat instructor with Advanced Infantry Training Battalion, School of Infantry West, Marine Corps Base, Camp Pendleton, Calif., breaks a stick to show one of the ways a tracker can identify whether someone has recently been through the area during the combat hunter course Jan. 28. The ends of a stick will show dirt from sitting over time, while a fresh break is much lighter and clean.

A Marine with 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, looks for possible disturbances in the natural environment such as freshly broken sticks, flattened plants, footprints or skid marks to identify if someone has recently been through the area Jan. 28. During the combat hunter training, the Marines were split up into two groups, the hunters and the prey, and put their new skills to the test.

Si non c'è dubbio quello è l'interprete, infatti gli altri hanno tutti gli SPC. Del resto l'MTV sarà più ingombrante ma offre maggior protezione quindi è una scelta logica.
