U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Bonifacio Andres, a field artillery cannoneer with 3rd Battalion, 11th Marines, forward deployed with 3rd Battalion, 12th Marine Regiment, 3rd Marine Division, carries a round during Artillery Relocation Training Program 25.4, at Ojojihara Maneuver Area, Miyagi, Japan, Jan. 29, 2025. ARTP, established by the 1997 Special Action Committee in Okinawa, relocates live-fire artillery training from Okinawa to mainland Japan to maintain readiness and stabilize U.S. Forces’ basing, enhancing regional security across Japan and the Indo-Pacific. This training boosts the capabilities and readiness of the Marine Corps’ only permanently forward-deployed artillery unit, enabling accurate indirect fire support. Andres is a native of Arizona.
