Marines and sailors with 3rd Medical Battalion utilize aerial capabilities of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force to transport casualties to a shock and trauma treatment site in Okinawa, Japan, October 26, 2015. The event was part of Exercise Blue Chromite 2016. Because Blue Chromite is an amphibious training exercise that draws primarily from III Marine Expeditionary Force's training resources in Okinawa, participating units maintain a forward-deployed posture while eliminating travel costs. 3rd Med. Bn. is part of 3rd Marine Logistics Group, III MEF.
