    170809-N-DC385-225 CORAL SEA (Aug. 9, 2017) An AV-8B Harrier, assigned to the “Tomcats” of Marine Attack Squadron (VMA) 311, lands on the flight deck of the amphibious assault ship USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) following an air defense exercise during Amphibious Integration Training (AIT). Bonhomme Richard, flagship of the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group, is participating in AIT with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) to increase joint capability to respond to a number of potential contingencies. AIT, taking place off the coast of and within Australia's Shoalwater Bay Training Area, will test the MEU's ability to conduct all of its core missions such as stability operations, non-combatant evacuation and disaster relief.
