Lance Cpl. Kelcey E. Kelly acts as the victim of a simulated improvised explosive device during Blue Chromite 2016, at Central Training Area, Okinawa, Japan, Oct. 29, 2015. The Shock Trauma Platoon, part of 3rd Medical Battalion, 3rd Marine Logistics Group, III Marine Expeditionary Force, conducted the emergency aid after a mass casualty scenario during Blue Chromite. Blue Chromite is a large-scale amphibious exercise that draws primarily from III Marine Expeditionary Force’s training resources on Okinawa. The location of the training allows participating units to maintain a forward-deployed posture and eliminates the cost of traveling to train. Kelly, from Bellingham, Massachusetts, is an embarkation specialist with 3rd Medical Battalion, 3rd Marine Logistics Group, III MEF.
