    III Marine Expeditionary Force   

    Maj. Gen. Richard Simcock gets to know the Marines of India Battery by holding a question-and-answer session on the gun line during Artillery Relocation Training Program 16-1, May 18, 2016, at Sendai, Japan. ARTP is a Japan-funded, routine training exercise that allows Marines with 3rd Battalion, 12th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force, based out of Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, to conduct live-fire training. Simcock, a San Mateo, Calif., native, is the commanding officer of 3rd MarDiv. The Sendai region was heavily affected by a tsunami that struck in 2011. As a forward, crisis-response-force, the U.S. Marine Corps launched Operation Tomodachi when the tsunami struck to provide humanitarian assistance.
