Mentoring

Mentoring is a relationship in which knowledge and skills are shared between members in a way in which everyone benefits. Often a more senior person is mentoring a junior person, but mentorship can happen between any two individuals. Mentoring will help Airmen and Guardians discover their strengths by achieving their full potential through a structured, trusting mentoring relationship.

I'm Corporal Troy Saunders with your Marine Minute.

U.S. Marines with Marine Rotational Force-Europe 19.1, alongside British Royal Marines, are currently participating in Exercise White Claymore in Norway. White Claymore enables Marines to improve their mobility and combat-skills in an arctic-climate setting. Capt. Josh White, Marine Rotational Forces Europe Commanding Officer, said:

SB (00:12)
"The Marines are tough. A lot of this is new to them and they figure it out. They keep each other's heads up when it's tough times in the field and they're cold, or they're wet or they're hungry.They keep each other lifted up. They have continually exhibited the essence of Semper Fidelis."

Back in the States,
The 2019 Marine Corps Trials kicked-off with an opening ceremony at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, February 26th. With nearly 200 wounded, ill or injured Marines, Sailors, veterans and international competitors, the trials promote recovery and rehabilitation through adaptive-sport participation for recovering service members and veterans; and serves as the primary venue to select Marine Corps participants for the 2019 DoD Warrior Games.
