MCSC achieves fielding decision after ‘herculean’ effort - Sgt. Johnathon Merten, a radio operator with 2nd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, conducts a radio check during a long distance, high-frequency communications training event held on Camp Pendleton, California, Jan. 13. In March, the Marine Corps’ High Frequency Radio II received a favorable fielding decision one year earlier than originally forecast. Marine Corps Systems Command expects to begin fielding the new radio in the spring. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Benjamin Aulick)
