Two combat cargo Marines take a break from onloading ammunition aboard the USS Kearsarge in preparation for the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit's (MEU) deployment aboard the vessel, Jan. 18, 2013. The MEU and Amphibious Squadron (PHIBRON) 4 are conducting PHIBRON-MEU Integration in preparation for their Composite Training Unit Exercise, the final phase of a six-month pre-deployment training program. The 26th MEU operates continuously across the globe, providing the president and unified combatant commanders with a forward-deployed, sea-based quick reaction force. The MEU is a Marine Air-Ground Task Force capable of conducting amphibious operations, crisis response and limited contingency operations. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Michael S. Lockett)
