The MCMAP program attempts to address teaching Marines close combat mindset and skills, but our Marksmanship training does not, at the moment, do the same thing for shooting skills. EMP could change that by teaching all of the fundamentals of engaging the enemy in close quarters, from mindset to stance to proper wear and placement of equipment. And, of course, how to engage targets. I became a big fan of EMP when I had a rifle platoon, to the point that my Marines became sick of dry-fire presentation drills.
