Kusierz, a machine gunner with Weapons Company, Battalion Landing Team 2nd Battalion, 7th Marines, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, sets up an M19 Automatic Grenade Launcher during opening day of exercise Talisman Sabre 2011.

This exercise is a major undertaking which reflects the closeness of the Australian and U.S. alliance and the strength of the military-military relationship.
