Good day Marines! I wish everyone a safe and fun Easter Holiday. There have been some changes in SFMC TRACOM over the last month. I have been working diligently to look at many of the policies within TRACOM and asked for feedback on what everyone would like to see and also to work on our Internal Techniques, tactics, and procedures. I would like to thank everyone that reached out to me with feedback.
