Marines with Reconnaissance and Surveillance Platoon, Battalion Landing Team 1/1, 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, jump out of the back of a CH-46E helicopter during Combat Rubber Reconnaissance Craft operations, May 4, in order to test their new, multifuel experimental boat engines. Marines also conducted maneuver training, high-speed cast and recovery drills and landings on the stern gate of amphibious assault ship USS Boxer. The 13th MEU and Boxer Amphibious Ready Group are currently on a deployment in support of regional Maritime Security Operations. MSO help develop security in the maritime environment and complement the counterterrorism and security efforts of regional nations. From security arises stability that results in global economic prosperity. These operations seek to disrupt violent extremists' use of the maritime environment to transport personnel and weapons or serve as a venue for attack.
