A Marine with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit rappels from the exit ramp of an MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft aboard the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) while underway in the Pacific Ocean, June 26, 2017. Rappelling allows Marines to enter otherwise inaccessible locations via rope from above. The 31st MEU partners with the Navy’s Amphibious Squadron 11 to form the amphibious component of the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group. The 31st MEU and PHIBRON 11 combine to provide a cohesive blue-green team capable of accomplishing a variety of missions across the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
