THIS IS THE WAY…. Congrats to the MCTOG team who upset EWS, the top team from the Group Stage, in the Commandant’s Cup championship finals. They won by just 12 points in an intensely hard fought set of games. Final score 289-277.
Marine Corps Tactics and Operations Group - MCTOG@mctog_magtftc2 May 2024

This is an example of exactly how NOT to use AI generated art. Using an entirely fictional cover art for an article on a specific weapon system simply tells me you have no idea what you’re talking about. This is becoming a trend. And you lose all credibility with your picture.
