U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Andrew Odeneal, a mortarman with Charlie Company, 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, currently attached to 3d Marine Division under the Unit Deployment Program, listens to orders during a close-air support mission at Combined Arms Training Center, Camp Fuji, Japan, Oct. 20, 2020. Marines on the Fire Support Team sharpened their skills during this exercise, increasing the lethality and proficiency of the only permanently forward-deployed Marine Expeditionary Force in the Marine Corps. Realistic training, such as this, is necessary to achieve readiness that serves as a credible deterrent against aggression and strengthens collective security in the region. Odeneal is a native of Clay, Alabama. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Savannah Mesimer)
