    Members of 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion practice boarding and takedown of a ship at night. Marines train for Visit, Board, Search and Seizure (VBSS) at the highest level. This type of interdiction involves a non-compliant ship, underway, opposed, at night. The operators have to attach a grappling ladder to the superstructure to board vessels with high entry points.
