Summary	The purpose of this proposal is to conduct early investigation, risk mitigation, and prototyping on a new Marine Corps initiative in small arms and marksmanship training. While the Marine Corps currently has training capacity for these evolutions, there is a desire to move away from proprietary software and hardware solutions and move towards open platforms, open source, and open APIs so that the Defense training community can bring its expertise and creativity to bear on these critical and enduring problems.
