Marines with Combat Logistics Battalion 31, secure U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency tents atop a 7-ton flatbed during U.S. Defense Support of Civil Authorities relief efforts on Tinian, Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands, Nov. 4, 2018. Businesses, government buildings, homes and
schools were heavily damaged by Super Typhoon Yutu, which made a direct hit with devastating effect on Tinian Oct. 25 as the second strongest storm to ever hit U.S. soil. Marines with the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit and CLB-31 arrived on Tinian Oct. 29-31 in the wake of Super Typhoon Yutu as part of Task Force-West. TF-W is providing Department of Defense support to the CNMI’s civil and local officials as part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency-supported Super Typhoon recovery effort. The 31st MEU, the
Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible force ready to perform a wide-range of military operations across the Indo-Pacific region. (U.S. Marine Corps video by Angelo Garavito/Released)
