U.S. Marine Corps Gunnery Sgt. Lakeetha Johnson, a Louisville, Kentucky native, and administrative chief with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) (MEU(SOC)), poses for a photo aboard the Wasp class amphibious assault ship USS Bataan, Feb. 6, 2024.
“I have been in the Marine Corps for 17 years and it has provided me the opportunity to continuously challenge myself, make my city and family proud and be an example to my beautiful children. I enjoy being able to converse and work with a diverse community of individuals that come together and unite with a common goal of welfare and mission accomplishment.”
“The best part of this deployment has been seeing my Marines work as a team, promote, retain and build their leadership skills. I enjoy being of a support to the Marines and Sailors of the Marine Air-Ground Task Force; it has been amazing to witness all of these incredible talents come together to be a collective success.”
The 26th MEU(SOC), embarked with the Bataan Amphibious Ready Group (BAT ARG), are currently on a scheduled deployment in the Mediterranean Sea. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Michele Clarke)
