U.S. Marine Corps Sgt. Christian Asher, a heavy equipment operator with Marine Wing Support Squadron 373, Marine Air Control Group 38, 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, observes his surroundings while in a defensive position during the Aviation Ground Support Leadership Course on Camp Pendleton, California, Feb. 8, 2023. Marines in the course trained for and demonstrated capabilities across the six activities of AGS: forward arming and refueling, airbase ground defense, airfield damage repair, aircraft salvage and recovery, base recovery after attack, and airfield operations. This course is designed to equip noncommissioned officers in AGS units with the knowledge and experience to be technically proficient, and develop them as strong, effective leaders. AGS is a critical component that bolsters Marine aviation’s expeditionary capability. Asher is a Virginia Beach, Virginia native.
