July 4, 2013 | 0:56
Marines and Sailors of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit flooded the flight deck of the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD-6) for sunshine, music, games and food during a 4th of July celebration. Called a "Steel Beach Picnic," food service Marines and Sailors prepared more than 1,300 burgers, 800 pieces of barbecued chicken, and 800 hot dogs for the 31st MEU and ship's crew. Interview: Lance Cpl. Benjamin W. Kinney - Meteorological Forecaster Analyst for the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit and native of Medford, Oregon. Location: USS Bonhomme Richard, At Sea. Lead-In: Barbecue, sunshine, family and fireworks. These are the words we link to a typical American 4th of July celebration. Sergeant Paul Robbins Jr. shows us how the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit had the barbecue, sunshine and family while deployed at sea. Sign-Off: The 31st MEU is the Marine Corps' force in readiness for the Asia Pacific region and the only continuously forward deployed MEU. Produced by Sgt. Paul Robbins Jr. Also available in High Definition.
