    Two U.S. Marines in MARPAT digital camouflage uniforms are engaged in what appears to be a tabletop wargame or strategy board game. The Marine facing the camera, whose name tape reads 'SKIPPER' and branch tape reads 'U.S. MARI[NES]', is leaning forward and studying the game board intently. Small military figurines are visible on a red surface, suggesting a tactical simulation exercise.

    U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Steven Skipper checks game rules during a game of Memoir 44’ on Camp Schwab, Okinawa, Japan, Dec. 10, 2019. Memoir 44’ is a war-themed strategy board game based on historical World War II battles. Wargaming is useful in generating, refining, and assessing concepts, plans, decision alternatives, issues and technologies. It also provides an opportunity to take risks, which is difficult to reproduce in experimentation, exercises or operations. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Timothy Hernandez)
