    Commanding Officer Colonel Ty Wallace, Sergeant Major Jim Lanham and Marines with Command Element, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, board a combat rubber raid craft during a helo-casting exercise in the Pacific Ocean, March 19, 2017. Helo-casting is a method for inserting reconnaissance and surveillance teams in support of small boat operations. The 31st MEU conducted helo-cast training as a part of their 17.1 Spring Patrol of the Asia-Pacific region. As the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward deployed unit, the 31st MEU’s air-ground-logistics team provides a flexible force, ready to perform a wide range of military operations, from limited combat to humanitarian assistance operations, throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
