Marines and Sailors with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit conducted training across a large swath of the Indo-Pacific region during a deployment in the spring of 2019. Marines and Sailors with Battalion Landing Team, 1st Battalion, 4th Marines, Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 (Reinforced) and Combat Logistics Battalion 31 trained in every aspect of the 31st MEU's mission sets and capabilities, and encompassed at least four geographic locations- Okinawa, Japan; aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Wasp (LHD 1) in the East China Sea; aboard the dock landing ship USS Ashland (LSD 48) in the South China Sea; aboard the amphibious transport dock USS Green Bay (LPD 20) in the Gulf of Thailand; and other undisclosed locations. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps' only continuously forward-deployed MEU partnering with the U.S. Navy's Amphibious Squadron 11, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
