    Col. Robert “Bams” Brodie, commanding officer of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, speaks with members of the Japanese Ground Self-Defense Force aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Wasp (LHD 1) before observing Alpha Company’s simulated boat raid, underway in the East China Sea, Jan. 25, 2019. Exchanges provide opportunities for III Marine Expeditionary Force Marines and Sailors, and Japan Self-Defense Force personnel, to observe training of their counterparts in order to increase mutual understanding and interoperability. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU partnering with the Wasp Amphibious Ready Group, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
