39th Commandant of the Marine Corps

“We have to do some very creative work to do additive manufacturing and 3D printing forward,” Smith said. “If confirmed, I'm committed to continuing that effort because I do see one day we will be printing forward in forward operating bases. We'll be printing major end items, aircraft engines, propellers, we'll be doing that forward as opposed to straining the lines that come from the United States through contested logistics areas.”  - General Eric Smith,  Commandant of the United States Marine Corps.
