An Australian soldier with Delta Company, 5th Battalion, The Royal Australian Regiment, Australian Army, Australian Defence Force, provides security before embarking on a CH-53E Super Stallion helicopter with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron 463, Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, after helicopter raid training, Aug. 7 at the Kangaroo Flats Training Area, Victoria, Northern Territory, Australia. Australian soldiers trained alongside U.S. Marines with Company C, 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, and used the bilateral training to familiarize both units with conducting a platoon-level assault on a simulated enemy encampment and securing intelligence. The rotational deployment in Darwin enables Marines to more effectively train, exercise and operate with their partners, enhancing regional security and building a capacity to respond more rapidly to natural disasters and crises throughout that region.
