    Marines move to the firing line during a live fire exercise with Mozambican troops Aug. 5 in Boane as part of Exercise SHARED ACCORD 2010. The 80 leathernecks, most from 2nd Battalion, 25th Marines, went through a combat marksmanship course of fire before about 200 Mozambican soldiers took their turn, firing a 10-round string of fire from 75-150 meters away from their targets while Marines stood by offering advice. Earlier the Marines led he Mozambican soldiers through a class on Marine Corps small-arms weaponry and weapons handling procedures. SA 10, which is coordinated by U.S. Africa Command’s Marine component, U.S. Marine Forces Africa, brings together more than 1,000 U.S. service members and Mozambican soldiers for the purpose of increasing Mozambique’s capacity to carry out peace and stability operations.

    A US Marine in desert MARPAT camouflage holds an M16/M4-style rifle with an underslung grenade launcher attachment while posing in the foreground. Behind him, a large group of soldiers wearing green camouflage uniforms and brown berets are seated and standing on red-dirt terrain. The setting appears to be a joint military training exercise in an African country, based on the uniforms and landscape.

The image is tightly cropped, focusing on the hands and the dark metallic object. The green-tipped bullet is clearly visible being loaded or handled at the top of the magazine.

    Two soldiers in different uniforms are engaged in what appears to be a military training or coordination exercise in an arid, red-soil terrain. One soldier wears green camouflage with a maroon beret, while the other wears desert-tan combat gear with a helmet and goggles. The soldier in tan gear is pointing in a specific direction, suggesting tactical communication or instruction.
    A soldier in camouflage uniform and dark maroon/brown beret is in a prone firing position on a red-dirt shooting range. Multiple human-silhouette paper targets are visible at varying distances across the open field. The scene appears to be a military marksmanship training exercise.
    A person wearing tan/desert-colored tactical gloves is holding a spiral notepad with hand-drawn sketches and handwritten text. The notepad contains what appears to be a diagram or schematic drawing along with text that reads 'BZD' and 'SD-100' or similar notation. The setting appears to be outdoors on red/clay soil terrain.
    Military personnel in camouflage uniforms and brown berets are engaged in a hand-to-hand combat training exercise outdoors. The soldier on the right displays a patch reading 'MOCAMBIQUE' and a Mozambican flag on his sleeve, identifying these as members of the Mozambican Armed Forces (FADM). Several other soldiers stand in the background observing the drill on dry, red-soil terrain.
    A soldier in camouflage uniform and a dark beret is crouched low to the ground on red laterite soil, appearing to examine or interact with something on the ground surface.
