    Royal Australian Artillery Lance Bombadier Aaron Costas, right, and U.S. Marine 1st Lt. Sean M. Swallen, left, work side-by-side in the middle of a company sized attack August 22 at Bradshaw Field Training Area, Northern Territory, Australia, during Exercise Koolendong 14. The attacked marked the beginning of the culminating event of KD-14, which will entail fire and maneuver exercises executed bilaterally with members of the Australian Army’s 1st Brigade and U.S. Marine’s 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment involving, infantry, tanks, artillery and engineers. Swallen is a platoon commander with 1/5 and is currently deployed in part of Marine Rotational Force Darwin. The rotational deployment of U.S. Marines affords an unprecedented combined training opportunity with their Australian allies, and improves interoperability between the two forces.
