Marines use a jackhammer to drive anchors in place for an M-31 Marine Corps Expeditionary Arresting Gear System at Tinian’s West Field Dec. 2 during Exercise Forager Fury 2012. The MCEAGS’ two trailers are set on opposite side of the airstrip 250 feet apart and will be able to allow F/A-18 Hornet aircraft to perform arrested landings every 3-5 minutes during the exercise. The Marines are Expeditionary Airfield System Technicians with Marine Wing Support Squadron 171, Marine Aircraft Group 12, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
