Marine combat engineers with Bridge Company, 7th Engineer

Marine combat engineers with Bridge Company, 7th Engineer Support Battalion, 1st Marine Logistics Group, work with New Zealand soldiers from the Corps of Royal New Zealand Engineers to conduct improved ribbon bridge training at Camp Pendleton, Calif., June 25. The training is part of a month-long training exercise, called Galvanic Kiwi, which afforded a military-to-military exchange. While New Zealand soldiers train with Marines at Camp Pendleton and 29 Palms, Marines with 11th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, deployed to New Zealand to conduct joint training operations. Galvanic Kiwi is a U.S. Marine Corps and New Zealand Army training exchange designed to enhance interoperability and foster military-to-military relations between the U.S. and New Zealand.
