    Staff Sgt. Robert Strautins, center, briefs Marines with Charlie Company, Battalion Landing Team 1st Battalion, 5th Marines, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, before they conduct static fast-rope training aboard the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6), Feb. 16, 2016. Fast-roping is an insertion method used by Marines when it is not practical or safe for an aircraft to land. The Marines and sailors of the 31st MEU are currently on their spring deployment to the Asia-Pacific region. Strautins, an Anchorage, Alaska, native, is a platoon sergeant with Charlie Co., BLT 1/5, 31st MEU. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Gunnery Sgt. Zachary Dyer/Released)
