MARINE CORPS BASE CAMP LEJEUNE, N.C. – Cpl. Jeffery A. Raider, an infantryman with 2nd Assault Amphibian Battalion, 2nd Marine Division, grimaces as he attempts to make his way over the obstacle course’s parallel bars. As part of a four-hour long evaluation known as the final drill, the obstacle course is just one of the many events that tests students of the Marine Corps Martial Arts Instructor Course on all the skills they’ve learned throughout the duration of the course.

The whole purpose of the program is to train Marines how to use the most lethal weapon in their arsenal, the mind.

Humph, have them live with teenagers for a couple weeks and they'll survive anything.
