Marines with 2nd Low Altitude Air Defense Battalion prepare a PL-87 Stinger Missile before approaching the firing line at Onslow Beach aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., May 25. Although the Marines with 2nd LAAD have acted as a security battalion while deployed they still keep their primary mission skills up to order in case a threat does appear. “There will always be a time and place for this training to pay off,” said Lt. Col. Joel A. Burdette, commanding officer of the air defense battalion. "Unmanned aerial vehicles could become a possible threat to us at anytime. That is why my Marines continue to train with the Stinger Missile.”
