Cpl. Alex Smith tells us about the K-MEP exercise in South Korea, and what it brings to the U.S. and ROK Marines.
Korean Marine Exchange Program (KMEP) is a regularly scheduled multinational exercise that focuses on the integration of aviation and ground assets within the construct of a traditional Combined Arms Live Fire Exercise and is designed to enhance the combat readiness of the U.S and Korean troops. KMEP also familiarizes U.S. Marines with the Korean Peninsula and builds upon an existing strong relationship between Republic of Korea and U.S. Marines. All ROK-U.S. alliance exercises are defensive in nature and are not connected to any current events.
