U.S. Marines with Combat Logistics Battalion 31, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, conduct training during a CLB-31 field exercise at Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, Nov. 6, 2024. Soft terrain driving improves Marines’ familiarity, trust, and confidence with the tactical recovery of equipment, and the patrols sustain and improve their skills in austere environments. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premiere crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
