Members of the Royal Moroccan Armed Forces read the 9-11 commemorative banner on the USS New York during their tour of the ship, which was part African Lion 12, a bi-lateral training exercise on the shores of Morocco, April 11, 2012. The training allowed the Marines of the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit to introduce the Moroccan troops to the unique capabilities of the assault amphibious vehicle, which the Marines used to bring the Moroccans to the ship that morning. This exercise is the first event for the 24th MEU and Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group, which deployed in March on a regularly scheduled deployment to serve as a theater reserve and crisis response force.
