BARRIGADA, GUAM (Jan. 31, 2023) U.S. Naval Special Warfare operators and Marines assigned to the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit board an MC-130J Commando II, assigned to 353rd Special Operations Wing, rehearse military free fall (MFF) jumps during training designed to strengthen Joint Force interoperability amongst forces deployed to the U.S. Indo-Pacific Command area of responsibility. MFF allows special operators access to drop zones in denied areas far from the aircraft they jumped from. Naval Special Warfare is the nation's elite maritime special operations force, uniquely positioned to extend the Fleet's reach and gain and maintain access for the Joint Force in competition and conflict.
