    Corporal Matt R. Burgess, squad leader, 3rd Squad, 1st Platoon, Kilo Company, Battalion Landing Team 3/5, 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit, assesses the situation before his squad cleared the town, as part of the unit’s final pre-deployment training, Certification Exercise, Aug. 27. Certification Exercise was different than the previous exercises the MEU conducted as part of their pre-deployment training. During this training, the Marines and sailors did not know what was on the training schedule and were expected to react to scenarios quickly using the Marine Corps’ Rapid Response Planning Process to prepare for the missions the unit will execute.
    Burgess, 28, is from Riverside, Calif.
