MARINE CORPS AIR STATION IWAKUNI, Japan - U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Blake Gorham, point man of the special reaction team with Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, Marine Corps Air Station (MCAS) Iwakuni, cuts into scrap metal at a training facility aboard MCAS Iwakuni, Japan, Aug. 8, 2021. The team trained with a STIHL TS-800 cut-off saw and BROCO PC/TACMOD1 torch kit to become familiar with the breaching tools and practice the ability to create accurate, precise cuts. Well-executed cuts are made to quickly and efficiently breach while minimizing the time that the team is exposed to danger. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Kevin Alarcon)
