Combat engineers navigate across the water in bridge erection boats (BEBs) and a combat rubber raid craft Jan. 29, 2019 at Naha Military Port. The Marines with Improved Ribbon Bridge Platoon, Bridge Company, 9th Engineer Support Battalion, 3rd Marine Logistics Group are designated as BEB operators, who were tested on a series of maneuvers at the port in order to attain BEB licenses. BEBS are used to move and connect Improved Ribbon Bridge (IRB) bays, which is a tactical bridging system that can span across wet-gaps greater than 100 meters or can function as a raft to ferry vehicles and equipment across larger bodies of water.
