    U.S. Marine Staff Sgt. Adam R. Sheley (left), the meteorology/oceanography chief with the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, and Cpl. Justin R. Seddon (right), a meteorology/oceanography specialist with the 26th MEU, observe and discuss the sea state during a Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX) aboard the USS Kearsarge July 27, 2015. The sea state is a description of the sea conditions including the height of waves and their frequency, and is used to assist unit commanders when making decisions during sea-based operations. The 26th MEU and Amphibious Squadron 4 are conducting a COMPTUEX to earn certification for their deployment to the 5th and 6th Fleet areas of responsibility later this year.
