Damaged and destroyed houses and debris rest in a neighborhood area here. The remote area is one of many regions recently ravaged by the 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami. The 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit delivered much needed relief supplies here, March 20. Navy and Marine Corps involvement is part of a larger U.S. government response, coordinated through the U.S. Department of State, after a 9.0 earthquake and subsequent tsunami struck Japan causing widespread damage. As part of Operation Tomodachi, the 31st MEU is ready to support our Japanese partners and to provide assistance when called upon.
