Marine Col. David Fallon, the commanding officer of 9th Marine Corps District, addresses the crowd at the US Marine Corps Open Wrestling Championships in Las Vegas, April 27, 2019. USA Wrestling has more than 226,000 members. Each year, USA Wrestling charters over 4,500 wrestling clubs and sanctions over 2,100 local, state, regional and national competitions. US Marines partner with and attend organizational championships such as the US Marine Corps Open Championships to support student athletes, coaches and their communities, to inform young people about opportunities within the Marine Corps, and to continue to foster the fighting spirit that Marines and athletes share. “I’d really like to acknowledge and congratulate all the competitors, win or lose, for making the decision to sign up and show up to this event,” Fallon said. “We all know it takes a special type of person to have the courage to walk to the center of these mats, put their toe on the line, and put it all on the line.” (US Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
