The video production highlights the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit's ability to gain access to critical areas anywhere in the world with ground, air and logistics capabilities, which enables the Navy-Marine Corps team to shape actions across the range of military operations to resolve conflict, conduct humanitarian assistance or combat enemy activity in remote, austere environments that would otherwise be inaccessible.

The 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and the U.S. Navy Bataan Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) are taking steps during Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX) to refine operations by bringing aboard a Department of State Liaison Element (DOSLE).
It is a tough job and not everyone is lining up to work at their pace. Combat cargo Marines have one of the most demanding jobs aboard the amphibious assault ship USS Bataan (LHD 5). This is especially evident during Composite Training Unit Exercise (COMPTUEX).
The 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and the U.S. Navy Bataan Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) participated in ARG, MEU exercise (ARGMEUEX) off the coast of North and South Carolina. ARGMEUEX was created to provide essential and realistic ship-to-shore training, designed to enhance the integration of the Navy-Marine Corps team.
The 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit participates in the Amphibious Squadron (PHIBRON) MEU Integration Training (PMINT) in the vicinity of Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, July 2019. PMINT is part of the 26th MEU’s and PHIBRON 8’s pre-deployment training program, which enhances interoperability and familiarizes Marines and Sailors to life on ship prior to deployment.
