    Marines and sailors take part in leisure activities during a recreational day aboard USS Bataan in the Mediterranean Sea, May 15.

The Marines and sailors of the 22nd MEU are currently deployed with Amphibious Squadron 6 aboard USS Bataan Amphibious Ready Group and will continue to train and improve the MEU’s ability to operate as a cohesive and effective Marine Air Ground Task Force.
