U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Devin Ferguson, a reserve assistant pit noncommissioned officer with Marine Corps Installations Pacific, uses a spotting scope to observe where rounds hit as Marines conduct a series of drills in preparation for the Marine Corps Marksmanship Competition Far East on Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, Dec. 13, 2021. During the competition, Marines practiced marksmanship on multiple courses of fire while conducting advanced pistol and rifle movement drills to accumulate scored points as a team and as individuals. The Marines with a score in the top 10 percentile will receive a medal and advance to other competitions. The competition is held annually to improve Marines’ marksmanship fundamentals, combat readiness, and proficiency with both rifle and pistol. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
