Western Division Matches began today at Wilcox Range near Camp Margarita and will run until March 7. Marines will learn how to enhance their marksmanship proficiency within the Marine Corps by refining precision marksmanship skills through advanced marksmanship training and competition. Marines that are selected from the matches will earn the opportunity to shoot at the Marine Corps Matches in Camp Lejeune in April. Cpl. Raquel Martinez, a range coach on Edson Range with Marine Corps Recruit Depot, fires an M16A4 during the 2013 Western Division Matches at Wilcox Range in the 33-area of Camp Pendleton. Martinez went on to win first in the individual rifle category.
