Hat Yao, Kingdom of Thailand - Chief Petty Officer First Class Veing Pimsorn, a Thai reconnaissance Marine, uses his teeth to demonstrate how to skin a coconut during a jungle survival class taught to Marines and Sailors of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit by Royal Thai Marines as a part of Cobra Gold 2013 here, Feb. 20. The class detailed ways to find direction in the jungle, how to identify edible plants and animals, and how to prepare food fit to eat. Cobra Gold demonstrates the resolve of the U.S. and participating nations to increase interoperability, and promote security and peace throughout the Asia-Pacific region. The 31st MEU is the only continuously forward-deployed MEU and is the Marine Corps’ force in readiness in the Asia-Pacific region.
