Marines evaluate biometric systems in tactical environment

Marine Corps Systems Command sent a group of Marines and civilians to rural Indiana in April to participate in a weeklong series of tactical exercises to evaluate two intelligence capabilities the Corps is considering as a replacement biometric system. “The event gave Marines an opportunity to be in the field, evaluate the equipment and provide candid feedback of these systems,” said Sarah Swift, MCSC’s Identity Operations team lead. “They let us know which system is more operationally relevant to them.”
