Captain Garron J. Garn, 33-year-old public affairs officer for the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, takes a break to enjoy the weather and scenic view of the training area here, Aug. 31. The 31st MEU has moved a battalion-sized force more than 300 miles inland from the Port of Darwin to conduct training. The exercise demonstrates the operational reach of the 31st MEU. Also participating in the exercise is the Marine Rotational Force – Darwin and soldiers of the 5th Royal Australian Regiment. The 31st MEU brings what it needs to sustain itself to accomplish the mission or to pave the way for follow-on forces. The 31st MEU is the Marine Corps' force in readiness for the Asia-Pacific region and the only continuously forward-deployed MEU.
