    A Legionnaire from the 2nd Foreign Infantry Regiment of France’s 6th Light Armored Brigade provides landing zone security for an MV-22B Osprey with Special-Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response Oct. 30, 2013, at Camp des Garrigues, France. The event was part of a week-long bilateral training exercise between U.S. Marines with SP-MAGTF Crisis Response and French Legionnaires. The Osprey was the first of its kind to land on French soil as part of a military exercise. SP-MAGTF Crisis Response is a self-mobile, self-sustaining force capable of responding to a range of crises to protect both U.S. and partner-nation security interests in the region, as well as strengthening partnerships throughout the U.S. European Command and U.S. Africa Command area of responsibility.
