U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sgt. David Piper, Littoral Engineer Reconnaissance Team (ERT) chief with 9th Engineer Support Battalion, 3d Marine Logistics Group (MLG), conducts a reconnaissance patrol after disembarking a CH-53E Super Stallion with Marine Heavy Helicopter Squadron (HMH) 462, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, during exercise Poseidon’s Watchtower on Ukibaru Island, Okinawa, Japan, June 8, 2021. Marines with 3d MLG and Sailors with Naval Mobile Construction Battalion (NMCB) 4 and UCT-2 were transported to Ukibaru island to survey the land for future construction and training. Poseidon’s Watchtower is a multi-domain exercise designed to simulate the establishment of Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations through joint service integration. NMCB-4 is forward deployed throughout the Indo-Pacific region and United States, ready to support major combat operations, theater security, humanitarian assistance and disaster relief operations. UTC-2 provides a capability to support a Fleet Marine Force amphibious assault, subsequent combat service support ashore, and construction, inspection, repair and maintenance of ocean facilities in support of Navy and Marine Corps operations. Sailors with Naval Construction Force (Seabees) provide general engineering and civil support to Navy, Marine Corps, and joint operational forces globally. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Sgt. Hailey D.
