"Not everything that we're going to be doing in our Marine Corps career, especially on the upcoming deployment, involve lethal force. So we have to have other means of handling a situation, and that might encompass a non-lethal approach."
Also in the Corps,
Marines with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit and Royal Thai Marines completed Exercise Cobra Gold 17 February 23rd at Camp Ban Chan Krem, Thailand.
