    U.S. Marine Lance Cpl. Adam Tarver, a rifleman with Lima Co., Battalion Landing Team 3/1, 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), stages his gear in preparation for a personnel recovery mission aboard the Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2), June 3, 2018, underway in the Pacific Ocean. The Essex Amphibious Ready Group and 13th MEU are conducting Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX), the final exercise before the units' upcoming deployment. This exercise validates the ARG/MEU team's ability to adapt and execute missions in ever-changing, unknown environments. Upon completion of COMPTUEX, the 13th MEU and Essex ARG will be certified as the nation's premier forward-deployed, crisis response force, capable of executing missions across the broad spectrum of military operations.
