Brig. Gen. Matthew Glavy listens to Lt. Col. Steven Schultze during a visit aboard Marine Corps Auxiliary Landing Field Bogue, N.C., Sept. 28, 2016. Glavy visited the airfield to thank Marines for their hard work, to better understand the challenges they overcome on a daily basis and set eyes on supporting facilities to ensure they are maintained to high standards. “Bogue represents the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing’s ability to conduct expeditionary operations,” said Glavy. “They provide aviation ground support, air traffic control, and operations support to the aircraft that rely on them.
