Marines and sailors with the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, and soldiers with the Japanese Ground Self Defense Force, are participating in a week-long at-sea period during Exercise Iron Fist 2012. The exercise encompasses all aspects of the Marine Air Ground Task Force during the training on San Clemente Island and provides the Navy/Marine Corps team an opportunity to practice its craft. Exercise Iron Fist 2012 is a bilateral training exercise, which gives the 15th MEU a chance to demonstrate its amphibious capabilities to the Japanese.
