U.S. Marine Cpl. Jesus Mendez, an assistant section leader with Assault Amphibious Vehicle (AAV) D Company, 4th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, looks into the distance in an AAV before conducting ship-to-shore movements as a part of exercise Tiger Strike 19 in the Celebes Sea, Malaysia, on Sept. 30, 2019. Utilizing AAVs, Marines disembarked the USS Green Bay (LPD-20), landed on Blue Beach, Malaysia, then brought back members of the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) aboard the vessel to participate in the opening ceremony for exercise Tiger Strike 19 and a tour. Tiger Strike 19 focuses on strengthening joint military interoperability and on increasing readiness by practicing for humanitarian assistance, disaster relief, amphibious and jungle warfare operations, all while fostering cultural exchanges between the MAF and the U.S. Navy, Marine Corps team. Mendez is a native of Tuscan, Arizona. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Josue Marquez)
