RIMPAC 2012 and the Marine Corps story.



Did you know that RIMPAC 2012 just ended?

Did you know that its the biggest exercise in the Pacific with the most nations participating?

Did you know that even more than Bold Alligator earlier this year it highlights the Marine Corps amphibious roots and traditions?

If you didn't I'm not surprised.  Once again others are attempting to label the Marine Corps as just another land force.  Failure to publicize the Marine Corps participation in exercises like this allow the uniformed or the devious to get away with this misconception.

We have got to do a better job at telling the Marine Corps story...not just the story of the Marine Expeditionary Brigade but of the entire REAL Marine Corps.
