Two Marine officers stood at attention side by side as the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing Commanding General, Maj. Gen. James Wellons, promoted them to the rank of major on Jan. 6, 2025.

On a brisk morning at Marine Corps Base Quantico, the 78th Secretary of the Navy (SECNAV) Carlos Del Toro, accompanied by his wife, Mrs. Betty Del Toro, arrived at Manpower and Reserve Affairs (M&RA) and were greeted by a formation of Marine leaders, civilian employees, and support personnel eager to mark a day of recognition and strategic discussions. The day’s itinerary highlighted the SECNAV’s dedication to honoring the hard work of Marine Corps Recruiting Command (MCRC) and M&RA staff, alongside key talks on the Department of the Navy’s (DON) priorities pertaining to recruitment and retention.
