The Championship brings together the top male and female tactical-athletes from each region to compete for the championship event. Sgt. Joshua Boozer, ammunition technician with 1st Supply Battalion and HITT Championship competitor, said:SB (:15:49): “Events like these, I think, it’s very important. One, it brings Marines from different installations together to where we can come from different bases and compete. It keeps the motivation up and it inspires other Marines to do their best. This is what the Marine Corps is known about, wanting to be the best of the best.”That's it for your Marine Minute, for more news around the Marine Corps go to Marines.mil.
