U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Brain Gardner, the safety chief of parachute operations for 3rd Reconnaissance Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, looks out the back of an MV-22B Osprey during free-fall parachute jump operations at Ie Shima, Okinawa, Japan, on Oct. 25, 2023. Marines, Airmen, and Special Operations Soldiers practiced static-line and free-fall jumps to hone their abilities for airborne operations. The 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
