Lance Cpl. Christopher Lynam, an intelligence clerk with Headquarters and Service Company, 1st Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, holds his daughter at the Marine Corps Exchange Annex parking lot on Marine Corps Base Hawaii shortly before leaving on a seven-month deployment to Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom, April 13, 2011. Approximately 1,000 Marine and sailors from 1/3 will join Regimental Combat Team 1, based out of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., only ten months after returning from a deployment to Helmand province’s Nawa District in support of RCT-7. Contrasting their last deployment, 1/3’s area of operation will shift further south into the province’s Garmsir District, where they will replace 2nd Battalion, 1st Marine Regiment.
