    MWSS-271 EOD make craters with Icelandic coast guard during Exercise Northern Viking 24

    U.S. Navy Chief Explosive Ordnance Disposal Preston Lee (left), from Florida, with Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit 8, works with Icelandic coastguardsman Geir Legan (right), from Reykjavik, with Icelandic coast guard EOD, to set up a controlled explosion as part of base recovery after attack training during Northern Viking (NV24) with Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) 271 on Keflavik Air Base, Iceland, Aug. 27, 2024. MWSS-271 took part in the exercise to maintain warfighting mentality and readiness to execute the six functions of aviation ground support and enable 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing to be forward deployed engaging anytime, anywhere, and at a moment's notice. NV24 strengthens interoperability and force readiness between the U.S., Iceland and Allied nations, enabling multi-domain command and control of joint and coalition forces in the defense of Iceland and sea lines of communication in the Greenland, Iceland, United Kingdom (GIUK) gap.
