The Pilot in Command and his front-seat Electronic Countermeasures Officer (ECMO) approach the aircraft for a combat flight.
The Troubleshooter represents all squadron enlisted Marines, the backbone of the Corps, who keep the aircraft "up", ready and safe-for-flight.
The "Chariot of Electronic Armageddon" is Fully Mission Capable (FMC), ready to take to the sky with its suite of advance Electronic Warfare systems and provide support to the Marines and Joint Forces on the ground.
The Pilot, ECMO and Troubleshooter talk at the boarding ladder about the condition of the aircraft and weapons systems. Mutual respect, trust and confidence is inherent throughout all phases of flight preparation.
The figures stand on a large foundation of black granite in recognition of those who have gone before, memorializing their service to country and Corps.
The monument will have a classy "less is more" appearance etched into black granite. The back, left and right sides will include HQ Marine Corps approved line art.
