    DJIBOUTI (Dec. 14, 2016) U.S. Marine 1st Lt. William Rountree, 1st platoon commander, Company B, Battalion Landing Team 1st Bn., 4th Marines, 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), provides a safety brief before a fire team maneuver under-fire range during Exercise Alligator Dagger, Dec. 14. During the brief, Roundtree explained range safety procedures to ensure each Marine understands how to successfully and safely execute the proposed range before commencing live-fire. A fire team is the smallest unit level in the Marine Corps, and is capable of executing combined arms using their service rifles, M249 Light Machine Gun and M203 Grenade Launcher to destroy the enemy with fire and maneuver. The unilateral exercise is designed to provide an opportunity for the Makin Island Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) and 11th MEU to train in amphibious operations within the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations. The 11th MEU is currently supporting the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations’ mission to promote and maintain stability and security in the region. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. April L. Price)
