    Happy Birthday 2nd MAW Celebrating 100 Years of Marine Aviation Vol. 69, No. 27 www.cherrypoint.marines.mil July 7, 2011 Wing Operations Center offers Force in readiness critical training opportunities CPL. BRIAN ADAM JONES MCAS CHERRY POINT The 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing’s recent large force exercise, Exercise MAILED FIST 1-11, breathed life into a brand new tool that leaders say will redefi ne the way 2nd MAW conducts training and local operations. The Wing Operations Center, a windowless room with rows of work stations, a panel of large, wall-mounted monitors and, sometimes, an air of excited anticipation, offers a command and control nucleus for wing activity during major operational events. From the WOC, dozens of attentive Marines monitor occasionally hec- tic and elaborate missions and training events, keeping a close eye on everything from radar and weather patterns to video feeds and maps. “It’s a place where we can move the chess pieces across the operational spectrum,” said Lt. Col. Martin J. Forrest IV, the current operations offi cer for 2nd MAW. Forrest clearly sees the opportunities provided by the WOC. “It will allow us to train and execute large-force exercises much more realistically,” he said. Lt. Col. Matthew R. McGath, who served as the senior watch offi cer for the WOC during MAILED FIST, said that several times during the exercise, the existence of the WOC offered unique perspective or training opportunities that otherwise would have been lost. “The WOC allows coordination. It’s a big situational awareness tool and the wing’s current operations will really use it more often,” McGath CPL.

This event, made possible with the help of our friends and partners at Mazda and the Sports Car Rac- ing Association of the Monterey Peninsula (SCRAMP), was met with questions at its announcement that have been answered in a big way, with more than 530 drivers on the entry list and a rejunvenaton of the west coast program all season long. While we haven’t been west of the Rockies since River- side International Raceway in 1968, it’s hard to believe it will be that long before we return again. The question on everyone’s mind, even more than usual, is who is going to win? Are there hidden gems on the west coast who may be making their first Runoffs appearance that will make a name for themselves on the national stage, or will the traditional contenders learn a new track quickly enough to hold their titles? My guess is that we’ll see some of each.
