Marine Corps Recruiting Command will host a casting call for Marines of all ranks, military occupational specialties and backgrounds for theopportunity to be featured in future MCRC advertising projects.

"We are looking for dozens of Marines to be featured in several different initiatives this year: a new television commercial, video and photo shoots across several installations, social media campaigns and community engagement events." said Capt. Wesley Jagoe, advertising operations officer, MCRC.
