This is the first time the F-35B and AV-8B Harrier, with Marine Attack Squadron (VMA) 214, 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit, are training on the same flight deck using Essex as a launch platform. U.S. Navy and Marine Corps integration training provides the Essex Amphibious Ready Group/11th Marine Expeditionary Unit its first opportunity to plan, brief, and execute multiple mission packages. Essex is underway conducting routine operations in U.S. Third Fleet. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Israel Chincio)
