U.S. Marine Corps Maj. Alex Butta, the future operations planner with 3rd Marine Expeditionary Brigade, III Marine Expeditionary Force, conducts a video teleconference with members of the U.S. Army’s 5th Security Force Assistance Brigade in Washington State during 3rd MEB’s Alert Contingency Marine Air Ground Task Force Exercise on Camp Courtney, Okinawa, Japan, June, 30, 2021. The exercise consisted of rapidly mobilizing a Forward Command Element which was supplemented by scalable follow-on forces from other elements of III MEF. The 5th SFAB could deploy with 3rd MEB depending on the assigned mission. 3rd MEB conducted the exercise as a no-notice, integrated, rapid-response event to demonstrate readiness to respond crisis as well as to maintain regional stability as required. 3rd MEB is a “fight now” force, forward-deployed and forward-postured, always ready to rapidly deploy throughout the region.
