1st Lt. M. Joel Wagaman, project manager at Marine Corps Systems Command’s Program Manager Training Systems, demonstrates the use of the Advanced Gunnery Training System—a simulation-based system that provides Marine crews gunnery and tactical training for the M1A1 Main Battle Tank and Light Armored Vehicle. A team from PM TRASYS recently released the results of a study that prove training in the AGTS can increase Marines’ proficiency while costing the Corps millions less than live training. - 1st Lt. M.
