Marine ground forces face tougher resistance than Desert Storm and rely on the Watchdogs of Marine Air Control Squadron 6 to manage air defense. Over the past year the unit upgraded to the Tactical Air Operations Module and a new radar, added two air traffic control detachments, and shifted to a detached concept.
The Marines of Air Control Squadron 6 expand high tech air surveillance and control capabilities using the Tactical Air Operations Center and main radar system plus AN/TPS-59 and AN/TPS-63 radars to monitor tens of thousands of square miles. IFF identification and Stinger missile coordination bolster wartime efficiency while ATC detachments at Bogue Field support allied aircraft and may relocate to Cherry Point.
Washington two videos target female Marine recruits to reduce attrition in boot camp. Officials say dropout rates are high for women due to injuries and changing career intentions. Shown before boot camp and in the first week, the 15 minute Tough Challenge Big Reward and the motivational You Have to Earn It seek to boost persistence as women recruit numbers rise toward a 1999 goal of 2,800.
Headquarters and Headquarters Service at Cherry Point sustains more than 10 000 military members and families aboard the world’s largest Marine Corps air station. The 1 200 personnel provide dining, postal, police, court, education, fire protection, transit, veterinary, health, and more to enable the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing to focus on combat preparation and deployment. They run the Piney Island Target Complex range and oversee rifle and swim qualifications while a small Army detachment handles disease control and sanitation.
