    An Australian soldier assigned to the 5th Battalion, Royal Australian Regiment reaches for his machine gun's spare barrel to exchange on his overheated weapon at the Infantry Platoon Battle Course, Range 10, Pohakuloa Training Area, Hawaii, July 20, 2014. U.S. Marines with 3rd Marine Regiment facilitated the Australian and Malaysian training on the range during Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) Exercise 2014. Twenty-two nations, more than 40 ships and submarines, about 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC from June 26 to Aug. 1 in and around the Hawaiian Islands and Southern California. The world's largest international maritime exercise, RIMPAC provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans. RIMPAC 2014 is the 24th exercise in the series that began in 1971. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Matthew Callahan/Released)
