This morning, four Security Battalion Marines earned their tabs as Martial Arts Instructors in MAI course 80-25, led by SecBn’s very own GySgt Nwosu. Congrats to 1stLt Bizzoco (HQCo), Sgt Valbrun (PMO), Cpl Crawford (MT), and Cpl Nunez-Medina (Band) on this significant accomplishment in your careers!

To become an MAI, Marines must attend a rigorous 3-week course focused on martial arts training, teamwork, and intense combat conditioning, with a 6 hour culminating event on the morning of graduation. This course is designed to push Marines past their limit both physically and mentally, ultimately producing highly qualified, disciplined, and lethal instructors to train the rest of the force in martial arts.
