    Story by Pfc. Scott L. Tomaszycki 

    II Marine Expeditionary Force   

    MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, N.C. - Highlighting Cherry Point's warriors.

    Q: What’s your job?
    A: I’m a block coach. I’m in charge of four coaches and 60 shooters every week. I relay commands to the tower.

    Q: What’s your favorite part?
    A: I get to teach people every day and I’m around guns. I love guns.

    Q: What’s the most challenging part?
    A: The most challenging part is getting frustrated when someone doesn’t catch on. I have to recognize my shortcomings as a teacher. Also I must wake up at hours that should not exist on the clock.

    Q: How does your job support the mission of 2nd MAW and MCAS Cherry Point?
    A: Every Marine has to shoot every year or they can’t deploy. We do our part to keep them mission capable.

    Q: How does your job in garrison differ from your job in the field?
    A: Sometimes I coach foreign nationals overseas. There's a language barrier, and they sometimes can't grasp the concepts.
