Local Students Add Cheer to Marines’ 9-Mile Hike
II Marine Expeditionary Force
Feb. 27, 2014 | 1:31
More than 150 Marines and sailors with General Support Maintenance Company, 2nd Maintenance Battalion, 2nd Marine Logistics Group conducted a nine-mile hike through the townships of Carolina Beach and Kure Beach, Feb. 27, 2014. The hike was used to train and educate the Marines about the Civil War battle of Fort Fisher and allow them to walk in the footsteps of those who have fought and laid down their lives for their country. It also gave them a chance to interact with some of the local school children and residents they serve. Marines and sailors with the company hiked with approximately 70 pounds of gear at a pace of three miles per hour, stopping at historical locations for professional military education lectures.
