    MARINE CORPS AIR GROUND COMBAT CENTER TWENTYNINE PALMS, California – A simulated improvised explosive device is marked on the ground during an urban assault at Range 200 aboard Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center, Twentynine Palms, California, May 16, 2017. Marines with 2nd Battalion, 8th Marine Regiment, conducted the Urban Warfare Package, part of Integrated Training Exercise 3-17, which is a platoon-level to battalion-size evolution where Marines practiced urban patrolling, leading up to a Marine Air Ground Task Force assault on an enemy held town. To increase the realism of the scenario, roleplayers dressed as hostile enemies, firing back at advancing Marines and IEDs were placed in various locations throughout the town. ITX is a training evolution conducted five times a year to enhance the lethality and co-operability between the four elements of a Marine Air Ground Task Force. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl.
