I wanted to know if there would be any opportunity to train in martial arts while in Camp Lemmonier. I dont want a deployment to hinder my progression.

I obv didn't know if Army could do MCMAP with the USMC guys, however, at least it's right there, so you might at least ask, if nothing else, ya know?

And maybe there's an Army Combatives group there as well, or maybe both groups train together...just a thought, in any event....

The place is hot, dirty and dangerious. I am sure you find someone in your unit to train with.
