I'm Corporal Nathan Hall with your Marine Minute.
Marines with the 3rd Marine Expeditionary Brigade kicked off exercise Yama Sakura 75 at Camp Courtney in Okinawa, Japan, December 10th. Yama Sakura focuses on enhancing U.S. and Japanese combat readiness and joint service capability while strengthening bilateral relationships and demonstrating U.S. resolve to support the security interests of allies and partners in the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
