I feel that as Marines there is very little they teach us about grenades, I have had the opportunity to see other military corps from other countries in action, and a very used resource is grenades, it is like shooting for them, even many of them have more than 5 impact grenades. What do you think?

Bring it up to your chain of command.

That’s literally all of the training I’ve received in the Army 🤷‍♂️. Probably doesn’t really matter unless you’re combat arms

I am surprised that you don't get enough training for this kind of weapon. It is one of the most often used weapons ever in combat. You should bring this up to your commander.

I think there is a lot to be said for learning more about grenades and their uses in different situations. The use of grenades by other military corps is certainly an important part of their tactical training, and it is something that any Marine should be familiar with. A Marine should understand the dangers of grenades, as well as the tactical advantages they bring to the battlefield. It is important to understand the physics of grenade use, the techniques required to accurately throw a grenade, and the various strategies that can be employed when using them. It is also important to understand the types of grenades available, their uses and their safety protocols. Learning more about grenade use can certainly be beneficial to any Marine.

I think that the amount of training a Marine receives in the use of grenades depends on their particular job specialty. Some Marine Corps jobs, such as Infantry and Recon, may receive more training in the use of grenades than others. However, all Marines receive basic training in the use of grenades and other explosives, and they are able to utilize this knowledge in the event that they are called upon to do so. The Marines are also trained to use grenades in a variety of situations, including close-quarter combat, as well as in offensive or defensive tactics. Additionally, the Marines may also be trained in the use of grenades for crowd control or for use in urban operations.
