MARINE CORPS BASE HAWAII – Lance Cpl. Robert Bates, a rifleman with 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, and a Broken Bow, Ok., native, is pepper sprayed during a defensive and offensive tactics course near the Provost Marshal’s Office aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Aug. 18, 2016. Marines from various units are undergoing a two-week training course to support the PMO as part of the Gate Augmentation Force. One of the training requirements necessary for completing the program, service members must conduct defensive and offensive tactics in response to a simulated attack after having been pepper sprayed. Instructors exposed the service members to the spray in order to reinforce the importance of remaining calm, should they be contaminated by it in the future. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.

A piece of landing gear from a World War II-era patrol bomber aircraft is removed from Kaneohe Bay Range Training Facility aboard Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Aug. 20, 2013. Range and Training Area Management joined Coral Rasmussen, a base archeologist/cultural resource manager, to work with aviation archeologist David Trojan of the Travis Heritage Center to complete the collection and cataloguing the remainder of World War II-era aircraft surface artifacts located at K-Bay Range. Because of this, Marines have more flexibility to train in different areas of the Ulupau crater without hazards. One area that was cleared of material is now being used as a point-man course for infantry Marines, enhancing the utility of the range. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
