More Information
As part of the pre-deployment training of Combat Logistics Battalion 31, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, Marines from across the spectrum of military occupational specialties trained in the operation of the M240G machine gun and M249 squad automatic weapon systems. Operating on the ground as well as from High Mobility Multi-purpose Wheeled Vehicle turrets, 34 CLB-31 Marines honed their machine-gunning skills to remain ready for any contingency. Soundbites include 2nd Lt. Wesley Jackson - security platoon commander, Combat Logistics Battalion 31, 31st MEU (Hometown: Mountainburg, AR.) Suggested Lead: Marines with the combat logistics element of the 31st MEU stepped outside their normal routine to refresh their skills in security operations. Cpl. Jonathan Wright puts us behind the gunds to see how and why. Suggested Tag: The 31st MEU is the only continuously forward deployed MEU and is the Marine Corp's force in readiness in the Asia Pacific region. Produced by Cpl. Jonathan G. Wright, Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan. Also available in High Definition.
