    31st Marine Expeditionary Unit       

    A U.S. Marine Corps CH-53E Super Stallion assigned to Marine Tiltrotor Squadron 265 (Rein.), 31st Expeditionary Unit, prepares to land during flight operations aboard amphibious assault ship USS America (LHA 6), in the Coral Sea, June 22, 2025. Marines with Marine Fighter Attack Squadron 242 and VMM 265 (Rein.) conduct flight operations consisting of F35B Lightning II aircraft, MV-22B Osprey helicopters and CH-53E Super Stallions, demonstrating multi-domain transport and 5th generation multi-discipline strike capabilities to support combined-joint operations in key maritime terrain. 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.
