Cpl. Willie Holden, an armorer with 5th Air Naval Gunfire Liaison Company, has Petty Officer Orestes Martinez, a corpsman with Regimental Combat Team 5, in a back mount during jiu-jitsu class, Nov. 17, at the Camp Ripper, Iraq, martial arts training tent. In a class taught by instructors with more than 35 years of combined martial arts experience, Martinez and Holden are but two of the students who are getting a well-rounded experience in grappling techniques beyond what's taught in the Marine Corps Martial Arts Program.
