    III Marine Expeditionary Force   

    On Feb. 23, 2016, at the Republic of Korea Pyeongtaek Naval Base, Maj. Gen. Richard L. Simcock II, 3rd Marine Division Commanding General, looks at the personal belongings of the 46 South Korean sailors who died when the ROKS Cheonan was struck and sunk by a North Korean torpedo, March 26, 2010. More than 60 Marines and sailors with III MEF, III MEF subordinate commands and adjacent commands based in Japan and South Korea, met in the South in order to uphold and strengthen the alliance between the ROK and the U.S., and reinforce their commitment to defend the country at a moment’s notice. The visit took place in various locations throughout the country, enhancing U.S. Marines' familiarization of the Korean Peninsula while simultaneously developing the kind of faith and trust between forces that can only be established through constant engagement, as well as rigorous and realistic training. Simcock is a native of San Mateo, Calif. (Official USMC photo by GySgt Jeremy Vought)
