U.S. Navy Lt. Ruth Rivera, a chaplain with Marine Wing Support Squadron 272, Marine Air Control Group 28, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing, and an Overland Park, Kansas native, delivers a sermon during Weapons and Tactics Instructor (WTI) course 1-25 in Yuma, Arizona, Oct. 5, 2024. Religious Ministry Teams are an integral part of WTI, engaging Marines throughout the exercise to remain resilient and mission ready, providing spiritual, emotional and moral care to all supporting agencies. Rivera explained her motivation to serve by saying, “It was a calling to make a difference in ways that others might not. It’s a journey that allows me to walk alongside service members through both their challenges and triumphs.” WTI 1-25 is an advanced seven-week course, which provides standardized tactical training and incorporates Marine Corps planning and implementation of air and ground tactics through a series of escalating evolutions, to support Marine aviation training and readiness.

Stephanie Ossorio, an ammunition technician with 2nd Combat Readiness Regiment, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, and a Miami native, poses for a photo at the Jacksonville Commons Recreation Complex, Jacksonville, North Carolina, Oct. 7, 2024. Ossorio’s command selected her for Warrior of the Week because of her leadership, integrity, and initiative while serving within the records section, continuously demonstrating her commitment to operational excellence. In her off-time Ossorio competes in softball and has the goal of making the All-Marine Softball Team, “Softball is therapy for me. When I get stressed, I know that I can release all of that emotion on the field. Joining the All-Marine Softball Team has been a goal of mine since I met a couple of the players.” Each week, 2nd MLG recognizes one outstanding Marine or Sailor that goes above and beyond in their duties and embodies the qualities of an outstanding service member.
