The Camp Lejeune, N.C.-based battalion spent approximately one month the Yuma area, making use of its surroundings’ rocky, mountainous terrain in preparation for a deployment to Afghanistan early next year. The exercise stressed the approximately 220-Marine force to use combined arms tactics, ranging from rifles and machine guns to mortars and TOW missiles. McBride, 20, is a Cincinnati-native.
