U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Christopher A. Sims, an aircraft rescue and firefighting specialist, showcases the proper technique for putting out aircraft fires during a demonstration at Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina, Dec. 11, 2018. From a small town with a population of less than 400, to a band of brothers and sisters more than 180,000 strong, Sims joined the Marine Corps in June 2017 to gain a larger family and more confidence. Sims, 20, from Meadow Bridge, West Virginia, is assigned to Marine Wing Support Squadron 274, Marine Wing Support Group 27, 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing. (U.S. Marine Corps illustration by Lance Cpl.
