A Japanese contractor connects crane hooks to a quadcon during onload operations at White Beach Naval Base, Okinawa, Japan, July 17, 2024. Onload operations ensure gear and personnel were accounted for before embarking on a patrol overseas. The 31st MEU is operating aboard ships of the USS America Amphibious Ready Group in the 7th Fleet area of operations, the U.S. Navy’s largest forward-deployed numbered fleet, and routinely interacts and operates with allies and partners in preserving a free and open Indo-Pacific region.
