U.S. Marines and Sailors with Marine Rotational Force–Darwin 24.3 and members of the Australian Defence Force participate in spiritual walks led by the Tiwi Island and Larrakia people in preparation for a Pukumani ceremony in Darwin, NT, Australia, Sept. 24, 2024. U.S. Marines were honored by the Tiwi Island and Larrakia people during the week leading up to two culturally significant ceremonies: a healing ceremony and a Pukumani ceremony. These ceremonies commemorated the three U.S. Marines who tragically lost their lives in a U.S. Marine Corps MV-22B Osprey crash on Melville Island on Aug. 27, 2023. The healing ceremony, led by the Tiwi people, marked the official end of mourning and included a traditional smoking ceremony. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Cpl. Manuel Rivera)
