Vince's Staff Academy Page

In July 1997 I attended the Marine Corps Reserve Staff Noncommissioned Officer Career Course.  The course was held at Camp Clark in Nevada, Missouri.  Staff Academy is professional military education for staff sergeants of Marines and is designed to make them better supervisors and small unit leaders.  We studied subjects such as time management, stress management, drill and ceremonies, counseling, rear area security, offensive and defensive operations, land navigation, and physical readiness training.


This is my platoon at Staff Academy.  I am in the front row at the far right.


This is a photo of me outside the barracks with SSgt Ossi, another Marine from my unit.


This is my platoon's faculty advisor, Gunnery Sergeant Smith, shaking hands with me after graduation.
