    U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Michael Casanave, left, holds the base of an 81mm mortar as Lance Cpl. Marcos Chavez-Rhodes prepares to fire the shell at a mortar shoot June 24 during Exercise Koolendong at Bradshaw Field Training Area, Northern Territory, Australia. Koolendong is a bilateral combined arms training exercise that combines light infantry, indirect fire weapons systems and air assets during training events. The rotational deployment of Marines in Darwin enables them to more effectively train, exercise, and operate with partners, enhances regional security and builds capacity to respond more rapidly to natural disasters and crises throughout that region. Casanave and Chavez-Rhodes are mortarmen with Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, Marine Rotational Force – Darwin. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Kathryn Howard/Released)
