    U.S. Marine Cpl. Alex Thomas, a tactical signals intelligence operator with 1st Radio Battalion, I Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group, barbell curls 115 pounds as part of the body bearer initial strength test at Paige Field House on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, May 23, 2022. The body bearers are an elite group of Marines whose primary mission is to carry the caskets of Marines, Marine veterans and family members at Arlington National Cemetery. In order to become a body bearer, Marines must pass a specialized initial strength test. The test consists of 10 repetitions of 225-pound bench press, 135-pound behind the neck press, 115-pound straight barbell curl and 315-pound barbell squat. Thomas is a native of Coatesville, Pennsylvania. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Nataly Espitia)
