ARTA BEACH, Djibouti (Dec. 18, 2016) U.S. Marines with Light Armored Reconnaissance (LAR) Company, Battalion Landing Team 1st Bn., 4th Marines, 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), fire a 25mm machine gun from a light armored vehicle (LAV) during a hasty attack live-fire range as part of Exercise Alligator Dagger, Dec. 18. Able to operate on land and in water, LAVs combine speed, maneuverability and firepower to perform a variety of functions, including security, command and control, reconnaissance and assault. The unilateral exercise provides an opportunity for the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group and 11th MEU to train in amphibious operations within the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations. The 11th MEU is currently supporting U.S. 5th Fleet’s mission to promote and maintain stability and security in the region. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. April L. Price)
