U.S. Marine Sgt. Alex Byrne applies camouflage paint at Jungle Warfare Training Center, Okinawa, Japan, Oct. 27, 2019. During their communication exercise, Marines with 7th Communication Battalion demonstrate their ability to establish and maintain communications in any environment, including the jungle. Byrne, a native of Pottstown, Penn., is a network administrator with Alpha Company, 7th Comm. Bn. "I'll be teaching network administration classes this time around. It should be a good opportunity for the Marines to hone the basics." Part of the training focused on the unit’s ability to deploy small fire teams in support of long-range rapid deployments where the Marine Corps will need to establish austere bases.
