 So a martial arts instructor, also known as MAI, is an 0-9-16 in the United States Marine Corps. They're responsible for training Marines in the Marine Corps martial arts program and advancing them through the 5-tier belt system that we have. My name is Gunner Sergeant Isaac and I am the lead instructor trainer for the Martial Martial Arts Instructor Course 124-TAC-20. The P-6 signifies being on the battlefield with that bayonet in hand attacking the aggressor, the enemy. The O-Course is a series of obstacles that requires the Marines to be physically fit to go through the obstacle course. We also give them a lot of time and have them put on their flag jacket and a little bit of weight. The E-Course is a test of Marines in Durris. The first half of the E-Course is a run, it's about a 3-mile run through the woods. The second half of the E-Course is a 2-mile run that includes several different obstacles that the Marines are required to navigate. The beginning of the course, the Marines have been given what we call discipline. It's a sandbag that they're required to carry with them everywhere they go. They realize at the end of the course that the discipline, the weight that the burden that they were carrying is now inside of them. It's a challenge, a challenge, weight, success. The whole thing right here is a straggler strike, right? Yes, it's going to strike. So this is your mental, your physical and your character discipline, is it not? Yes, it's going to strike. So essentially this is what you are, is it not? Yes, it's going to strike. I'm going to ask for reward. Here, I have to go away. Oh yeah. So once the Marines graduate, they leave with a 10 straggler they add to their MiGMAP belt, and they're known as a martial arts instructor. Their sole responsibility is going to be training of the Marines, instead of the same three disciplines that they have learned and instilled in themselves in the past three weeks. The ultimate goal for them is to just battle Marines and make better war fighters throughout the course.
