    Blue Diamond Marines Learn to Survive in the Jungle from Brazilian Marine Corps during Exercise Formosa

    A Brazilian marine holds up burning kindling after starting a fire by creating heat from friction with sticks during a “Cerrado” wilderness survival class given by Brazilian marines to U.S. Marines with Echo Company, 2nd Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, Aug. 12, 2023, at the Base Expedicionária de Fuzileiros Navais in Formosa, Brazil, during the Corpo de Fuzileiros Navais’ (Brazilian Marine Corps’) annual Infantry Training Exercise Formosa. The Marines learned survival techniques specific to Brazil and that can apply anywhere in the world, such as building a fire with sticks, what plants are edible or not and also camouflage techniques.
