Kim Yung Hwa during Korean Marine Exchange Program 15-4 Feb. 4 at the Pyeongchang Winter Training Facility, Pyeongchang, Republic of Korea. Survival skills such as knowing how to find food and clean water and how to build fires and shelters are essential skills in nearly every environment, so this training allows the Marines to be more proficient at what they do, according to U.S. Marine Sgt. Joseph K. Blankenship. The overarching goal of KMEP is to enhance and improve the interoperability of ROK and U.S. Marine Corps forces. Nolan, a Seattle, Washington,native, is a rifleman with Company L, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, currently assigned to 4th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force under the unit deployment program.
