CAMP LEJEUNE N.C. — U.S. Marine Corps Special Operations Command has revamped its training pipeline, and the first 60 Marines through the assessment and selection process began the new course this month.
The new nine-month training pipeline is designed to prepare Marines for spec ops missions and provide all Marines with a set of basic skills in tactics, language and cultural training.
In the past, the Marines were trained in either advisory skills or more combat-oriented missions. The new training pipeline, which took a year to develop, is part of a larger effort to standardize the basic capabilities of all special operations Marines.
