The CCLTF is predicated on three statistics that, internally, we call the 90-4-1. 90% of casualties since WWII have been from the close combat forces that comprise about 4% of the total force that get about 1% of DoD’s research and development dollars. https://t.co/FjpLS8kXcP

A special thanks to all the people that attended our breakout session at the Maneuver Warfighter Conference hosted by the Maneuver Center of Excellence @FortBenning on Tuesday. We appreciate all 226 attendees for wanting to learn about our mission to provide #TacticalOvermatch.

[Sergeant Major Carlos A. Ruiz @USMCSgtMaj]

The @USMC Rifle Squad Competition winners from each Division endured some of the most challenging events to earn the title simply because they wanted to be the best. If we get called upon today to go into combat, we will win. That's no excuse not to be better tomorrow. Semper Fi.
