United States Marine Corps **** Infantry Rifleman: Company Armorer

During my time in the Marines, I held the position as an Armorer. I developed a comprehensive skill set that encompasses all aspects of weapon and ammunition management, maintenance, and security skills. My responsibilities involved meticulous inventory management and accountability of five million dollars in weapon systems, ensuring they were properly serialized, accounted for, and maintained in optimal condition. I had extensive experience in the conducting of routine cleaning, lubrication, and maintenance, along with identifying and addressing any repair needs. The hands-on experience and the courses that were required gave a deep understanding of firearm mechanics and ensuring operational readiness and reliability. A key part of my role was ensuring the security and safety of weapons. This included storing weapons securely, conducting periodic inspections, and implementing security protocols to prevent unauthorized access, theft, or loss. My experience in ammunition handling was equally comprehensive. It involved inventory management, issuing ammunition, and ensuring its safe storage. The protocols for transporting ammunition were equally comprehensive. I had to sign out a Humvee with another Marine, along with two patrol rifles for the added security element. We would sign for the ammunition and drive it to whatever range or ammunition depot that it was needed at, neither of us leaving the vehicle or ammunition by itself. Additionally, my role required thorough documentation and reporting, ensuring transparency and accountability in operations, and adherence to Marine Corps policies and regulations. This experience has equipped me with the necessary administrative skills and a keen understanding of regulatory compliance in security operations.

My role also involved communicating effectively with fellow Marines, superiors, Officers, and occasionally civilians, especially in situations requiring clear and concise instructions. United States Marine Corps 0311 Infantry Rifleman: Military Chaser My experience as a Chaser in the Marine Core honed my proficiency in operating and maintaining a variety of military vehicles, ensuring their optimal performance for secure transporting. I have been responsible for the safe and efficient transportation of personnel, supplies, equipment, and prisoners. My role required constant communication with military units and superiors, a skill that is vital in collaborative and high-stakes environments. I transported military prisoners to and from the Brigg and their court-martial appointments and other various appointments. To transport said prisoners they were hand cuffed, chained to their waist and had ankle cuffs/chains to ensure a level of peaceful compliance for not only their safety but for myself and the other Marines in charge transporting them as well. My tenure also involved a strong focus on safety protocols and emergency response, ensuring the well- being of all prisoners and cargo.

This included a comprehensive approach to security operations, where I engaged in vigilant patrolling, stringent access control, and diligent monitoring. My role demanded a keen eye for detail and the ability to quickly identify and respond to potential security threats. Armed protection was a key aspect of my duties, requiring me to carry and responsibly use firearms and following the loading and unloading and transportation procedures. The firearms I carried were the Glock-19 9mm and the Remmington 870 12-gauge shotgun. This experience honed my ability to manage high-pressure situations but also emphasized the importance of maintaining safety and security of both assets and personnel. I was responsible for enforcing access restrictions and managing advanced electronic access control systems. I ensured that only authorized personnel gain access to secure areas, thereby upholding the integrity of the facilities I protected. Anyone who did not have the authorization to come onto the facility was run through the system and escorted on site if they were cleared. We worked closely with a K-9 unit when there were cargo trucks or Maintenace vehicles that needed to be checked for unauthorized materials. In addition to these operational roles, I was actively involved in incident reporting and risk assessment. This involved documenting detailed reports of security incidents and proactively assessing potential vulnerabilities to enhance security measures. My role also required effective communication with various teams and authorities, ensuring coordinated and seamless security operations.
