    Marine Rotational Force - Darwin

    U.S. Marines with Ground Combat Element, Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, conduct direct lay and direct alignment firing drills with an 81mm mortar at Mount Bundey Training Area, NT, Australia, Aug. 6 2020. The training provided Marines a unique opportunity to develop new techniques and procedures to integrate direct and indirect fire. The ability to rapidly deploy fire support and employ indirect fire weapons provide the Marine Corps an advantage as an expeditionary forward force deployed to austere environments.
