Job Summary

The Marine Corps Tactics and Operations Group (MCTOG) mission is to provide standardized advanced training and certification to Ground Combat Element (GCE) Operations Officers, Operations Chiefs, and select other GCE training specialists in GCE operations, combined arms planning and integration, and unit readiness planning at the company, battalion, and regiment levels to support GCE Training and Readiness (T&R) events.

MCTOG provides support to its higher headquarters, MAGTF Training Command (MAGTFTC), when requested. MAGTFTC conducts a Service Level Training Exercise, the Integrated Training Exercise (ITX), which includes requirements for design and development of scenario(s), and observation, assessment, and mentorship of training unit staffs. MCTOG is providing this support.

There is a critical need to assist the MAGTFTC in the assessment and after-action review and analysis of the execution of training during the ITX. One of several end states for the training is a timely, thorough, and informative assessment of the performance of training units' tactics, techniques, and procedure (TTPs) during maneuver operations across multiple ranges. OSG is sourcing a Drone Support Team to fly unmanned aircraft with video-capable payloads to observe and record the actions of Marines during training. The Videography Drone Pilot (Drone Pilot) will be a significant and key player on that team.

The Drone Pilot shall have significant drone flight operations experience while simultaneously operating a video camera payload. To fulfill the role as a Drone Pilot, the incumbent will develop, analyze, organize, plan, and execute the aerial videography of military training exercises in a safe and timely manner. Working within a team, the incumbent shall support the development and provision of immediate (within an hour) edited video feedback to the training unit trainers for their use in debrief and after-action reviews and provide a copy of all video footage in some form of external memory storage device (DVD, thumb drive, SD Card, etc.) for their later viewing and analysis.

The Drone Pilot will serve to support the staff of MAGTFTC, Tactical Training Exercise Control Group (TTECG), aka the 'Coyotes', and Marine Corps Tactics and Operations Group (MCTOG) as required. The incumbent will work with the Drone Support Team, and the Exercise Design and Control Staffs to develop a video support plan to enable the employment of the drone system in the most effective methods for capturing critical actions on the ground, while adhering to range and airspace safety regulations.

Specific Responsibilities



  • Operate unmanned aviation vehicle / system (UAV/S) with video recording capability in support of Marine training.




  • Plan for optimal employment of the UAS in support of the training unit's ground scheme of maneuver.

  • Develop contingency plans in the event of drone malfunction.




  • Record key events during training event based on direction from Coyotes via radio.




  • Anticipate and communicate drone operating parameters to the government client as required; should wind, lighting, or other environmental conditions preclude the use of drone support, inform all points of contact as soon as possible




  • Download drone video footage to a computer for subsequent editing.
