Members of the Chilean naval infantry hang a sign pointing toward Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, in honor of the U.S. Marines with 1st Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, 1st Marine Division, participating in a bilateral cold weather training exercise at Isla Dawson, Chile, Aug. 21, 2023. Throughout the exercise, Marines learned proper techniques for obtaining food and water, employed different weapons and gear, built shelters, practiced foot movements over snow, and conducted cold weather personnel rescue. Training exchanges in South America provide U.S. forces opportunities to train in exotic environments such as humid jungles, frigid mountains, and complex waterways while strengthening partnership and enhancing overall interoperability with regional partners.
