U.S. Marines with Battalion Landing Team 2/4, 31st Marine Expeditonary Unit, practice paddling an enhanced combat rubber reconnaissance craft during a small boat sustainment training at Naval Base White Beach, Okinawa, Japan on Dec. 10, 2024. This training was conducted for the first time in the Indo-Pacific region in order to introduce the Marines to the newly fielded E-CRRC and increase their proficiecy for upcoming boat raids. The E-CRRC has an increased load carrying capacity as well as improved ride quality, speed, stability and seakeeping in heavy seas over the legacy CRRC. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premiere crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
