    An MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft sits on the flight deck prior to nighttime flight operations while underway with the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6), June 10, 2017. The Osprey belongs to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265 (Reinforced). Marine aviators with VMM-265 (Rein.) and Marine Attack Squadron 311 (VMA-311), which combine to form the Aviation Combat Element of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, refined their nighttime takeoff and landing capabilities during the training. The 31st MEU partners with the Navy’s Amphibious Squadron 11 to form the amphibious component of the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group. The 31st MEU and PHIBRON 11 combine to provide a cohesive blue-green team capable of accomplishing a variety of missions across the Indo-Asia-Pacific region. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Staff Sgt. T.
