    U.S. Marines assigned to 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion and soldiers with the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force conduct helocast operations at Pyramid Rock Beach. The recon Marines were boating to shore to make way for a final amphibious assault during Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) Exercise 2014. Twenty-two nations, 49 ships and six submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC from June 26 to Aug. 1 in and around the Hawaiian Islands and Southern California. The world's largest international maritime exercise, 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. RIMPAC 2014 is the 24th exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Marine Corps Photo by Cpl. Matthew Callahan/Released)
