"The community has been a very gracious host the entire time we've been here, and what little bit we can do is a tangible demonstration of the U.S. commitment to the U.S. - Australian alliance. So we love to give back to the local community."
Also in the Corps,
Marines from 2nd Combat Engineer Battalion and 3rd Battalion, 6th Marine Regiment participated in an Urban Breaching range at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, March 20th.
