An amphibious assault vehicle with Combat Assault Company, 3rd Marine Regiment, waits to advance on the beach at Marine Corps Training Area Bellows, July 12, after sailing from the USS Rushmore. Three waves of AAVs landed at MCTAB in support of Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) Exercise 2014, the world’s largest international exercise. Twenty-two nations, 49 ships and six submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC from June 26 to August 1, in and around the Hawaiian Islands and Southern California. RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans.
