    Two individuals are walking along a wet, reflective beach at what appears to be dawn or dusk under a partly cloudy sky. Both figures are silhouetted and carrying diving or snorkeling equipment including fins and what appear to be spearguns or similar gear. Their reflections are clearly visible on the wet sand, and coastal cliffs are visible in the background.

    U.S. Marines with Charlie Company, 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, 1st Marine Division, walk along the shoreline during amphibious reconnaissance skills training at Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, June 30, 2026. The training provides Marines with the opportunity to strengthen and refine critical amphibious capabilities, including open-water swimming, beach trafficability assessment, reporting, and night photography, enhancing their readiness for future operations.
