U.S. Marines with Officer Selection Team (OST) Tampa of Recruiting Station Tampa, alongside members of the Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce, conduct a ribbon-cutting ceremony to showcase the activation of OST Tampa on Sep. 4, 2025, at the Tampa Bay Chamber of Commerce. The new team was created as part of a larger plan to improve how the Marine Corps finds and recruits future officers. This plan is based on updated population data, which helps the Marine Corps focus on areas with more eligible young people. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Jaylen Davis)
