    This is actually pretty close, but here's the deeper reason:

    Spend time learning to shoot or spend time learning your MOS. The folks I train aren't combat arms. I train truck drivers, supply folks, and medical types.

    Ultimately their Commander is the one to accept the risks for their marksmanship abilities (inabilities?)....

    The other side of this coin is that Marines are not good conducting sustained logistics using internal assets. I remember very clearly doing my part to figure out how 1st MEF was going to stay in Helmand for greater than 90 days. The answer was the Army.
