    U.S. Marines with Battalion Landing Team 1st Bn., 4th Marines, 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), advance toward downrange targets during a squad assault rehearsal as part of Exercise Alligator Dagger at Arta Beach, Djibouti, Dec. 18, 2016. During the assault rehearsals, the Marines were tested in their abilities to react and respond to simulated fire from enemy combatants by bounding toward the objective and delivering suppressive fire as a team. The unilateral exercise provides an opportunity for the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group and 11th MEU to train in amphibious operations within the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations. The 11th MEU is currently supporting U.S. 5th Fleet’s mission to promote and maintain stability and security in the region. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Devan K. Gowans)
