A Marine with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit’s Maritime Raid Force fast ropes from a Navy MH-60S Seahawk helicopter during helicopter rope suspension training aboard the USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) while underway in the Pacific Ocean, Sept. 9, 2017. Fast roping allows Marines to enter otherwise inaccessible locations via rope from a hovering aircraft. The 31st MEU partners with the Navy's Amphibious Squadron 11 to form the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group, providing a cohesive blue-green team capable of accomplishing a variety of missions across the Indo-Asia-Pacific region.
