    Lance Cpl. Mario Anderson observes his Marines shooting targets during a live fire training event Aug. 16, 2017 at the live fire range in Hokudaien, Japan, in support of Northern Viper 17. Marines and Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force service members assaulted the target by cover and maneuver and suppressed fire from Japanese tanks and U.S. light armored vehicles. The U.S. has a vested interest in a secure Pacific; Combined-joint exercises enhance regional cooperation between participating nations to collectively deter security threats. Anderson, an Ogden, Utah native, is a team leader with Alpha Co., 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment attached to 3rd Marine Division through the unit deployment program.
