U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Vlad Vanhorn, a Smyrna, Georgia, native and anti tank missile gunner with 2d Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, 2d Marine Division poses for a photo during Mountain Warfare Training Exercise 2-23 on Marine Corps Mountain Warfare Training Center, Bridgeport, California, Jan. 24, 2023. “I was adopted by an American family at the age of thirteen,” said Vanhorn. “My parents fostered a sense of patriotism to America. I joined to give back for everything the country has done for me.” MTX prepares units to survive and conduct extended operations in mountainous terrain during the winter.
