Tactical Coxswain & Military Small Craft Training
Between the requirement and the waterline
Qualification pathways from small-craft operator to tactical coxswain, built around measurable T&E gates and operational standards.
Capability
MTAG approaches training as a qualification standard, not a classroom event. Programs are structured around progressive operator skills, T&E gates, platform proficiency, and tactical coxswain development.
The instructor cadre is qualified across five USMC platforms, connecting technical platform knowledge with the operational demands placed on the crew.
Qualification Pathways
Structured progression from small-craft operator through tactical coxswain qualification.
T&E Gates
Measurable training and evaluation gates that establish proficiency before crews advance.
Platform Experience
Instruction grounded in direct small-craft and riverine experience and qualifications across five USMC platforms.
Field-informed integration

Institutional training experience
From combat craft to formal riverine schoolhouse.
