Jesus Rodriguez, Combat Engineers, with Task Force Sapper, prepare the engineer stake welded on the barrier to attach barbed wire along the southern border barrier near Imperial Beach, Calif., May 29, 2025. Task Force Sapper is composed of 500 Marines from I Marine Expeditionary Force who have been tasked with engineering support to U.S. Northern Command with the emplacement of physical barriers on the Southern Border barrier to add additional security that will curtail illegal border crossings. Under the direction of the U.S. NORTHCOM, Joint Task Force–Southern Border aligns efforts to seal the southern border and repel illegal activity and is responsible for full-scale, agile, and all-domain operations, which will allow for more effective and efficient DoD operations.
