Lt. Col. Christopher Johnson, commanding officer of Combat Logistics Battalion 31, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, speaks to LCpl. Ashley Breed, a satellite communications operator and LCpl. Preston Quam, a ground electronics maintainer, next to a Very Small Aperture Terminal Satellite at Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, Oct. 3, 2019. VSAT satellites are used for transportable, on-the-move or mobile maritime communications, making them a valuable communication option for the MEU while conducting amphibious operations. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
