Marines with Fox Company, Battalion Landing Team, 2nd Battalion, 4th Marines, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), conduct safety checks on a Combat Rubber Raiding Craft (CRRC) during a squad competition after a small-boat exercise at Kin Blue, Okinawa, Japan, July 7, 2020. The competition tested the Marines’ ability to maneuver CRRC’s without an engine, demonstrate safe capsize procedures, and low carry a CRRC over a beach. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, 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.
