Daniel Villan, combat engineer with 1st Combat Engineer Battalion, 1st Marine Division, provides security during a simulated raid as part of Exercise Steel Knight 25 at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, Dec. 12, 2025. This exercise will certify 5th Marine Regiment for Marine Rotational Force–Darwin, a six-month forward deployment in Australia that strengthens combined interoperability with the Australian Defence Force and provides rapid crisis-response options for the joint force across the Indo-Pacific.
