An Anti-Personnel Obstacle Breaching System detonates during the SAPPER Leaders Course at Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, June 26, 2015. The course was taught by Marines from 2nd Combat Engineer Battalion, 2nd Marine Division for service members from 4th CEB, 4th Marine Division, stationed in various parts of the U.S., and the 119th Engineer Company with the West Virginia Army National Guard. “This is more for conventional warfare, not like you would see in Iraq or Afghanistan, but down the road we need to be prepared for anything that could pop up at any time,” said Cpl. Ian Jennings, a fire team leader with 4th CEB and the course’s honor graduate. “As engineers, we need to be able to breach that obstacle so we can get the infantry in so they can do their jobs.”
