QATAR (Nov. 29, 2018) U.S. Marines with Bravo Company, Battalion Landing Team 3/1, 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), demonstrate how to conduct a proper buddy drag with Qatari marines during Eastern Maverick 19. The Essex Amphibious Ready Group (ARG), and the 13th MEU participated in this year’s bilateral amphibious and land-based exercise to strengthen critical war fighting capabilities and enhance interoperability and operational readiness among the U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps and Qatari Armed Forces. The Essex ARG/13th MEU is a flexible and persistent Navy-Marine Corps team deployed to the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations in support of naval operations to ensure maritime stability and security in the Central Region, which connects the Mediterranean and the Pacific through the western Indian Ocean and three strategic choke points.
