 Hurry up, time to take care. Marines with Delta Company began infantry training aboard Camp Geiger, North Carolina. Only there's one slight change to the new cycle. It's just going to slow you down. For the first time ever, female Marines are taking part in infantry training. Their participation supports the Corps' research into women and infantry. Yeah, sorry. Us putting these Marines through ITB is no different than what we're doing at MCT. Every Marine is a rifleman. These females coming through being ITB, we're trained to be basically trained Marines. Maybe a little bit better, take some more time with them than they would be going to MCT. I think to put a better Marine, whether she goes to her MOS school out in the fleet, we're just making her a better rifleman. Within infantry training battalion, we are holding everyone to the same standard. So there's no male or female. It's just the standard for infantry training battalion. This is definitely a history point for the Marine Corps. We're assessing it, taking the data input that we have and everything will be assessed and no one's held to any different standards. It's all the same standard and the Marines are going to do good things and we'll see where history brings us. Talking with a bunch of them, I asked them, you know, why did you do this? And their answer to me was I wanted to challenge. I think our Marines, they come to the Marine Corps for a challenge and this was a way for them to put a little bit more effort and do something that, you know, most people won't volunteer for. Reporting from Camp Geiger in North Carolina, I'm Lance Corporal Clayton Philippovic.
