Marines come ashore in an amphibious assault vehicle on Alvund Beach, Norway during an amphibious landing in support of Trident Juncture 18, Oct. 30, 2018. Trident Juncture provides a unique environment for the Marines and Sailors to rehearse their amphibious capabilities which will produce a more capable expeditionary fighting force. The AAVs originated from USS New York (LPD 21) and showcased the ability of the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group and the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit to rapidly project combat power ashore. The vehicles are with 2nd Amphibious Assault Battalion, 24th MEU. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Margaret Gale)
