Urban Training, US Marine Corps Photo

The 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit's Maritime Raid Force conducted its semi-annual Realistic Urban Training Exercise at an empty facility in Guam. The Marine force parachuted into local urban environments, setting up reconnaissance and surveillance for the main raid on an empty facility during the night. The purpose for conducting such an exercise in a different country is to evaluate the MRF's long-range raid capabilities and to gain experience operating in a foreign environment..(U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
