CAMP BUEHRING, Kuwait --

Marines and Sailors from the Boxer Amphibious Ready Group and 11th Marine Expeditionary Unit completed a two-week training exercise aboard multiple U.S. military installations in Kuwait, Aug. 9.

The exercise enabled the 11th MEU to train together as a Marine Air-Ground Task Force for the first time since completing similar sustainment training in Hawaii during their transit to the U.S. 5th Fleet area of operations in May.

“Our time in Kuwait enabled us to maintain our lethal edge and remain ready to respond to a crisis, should one arise,” said Lt. Col. Geoffry Hollopeter, Battalion Landing Team 3/5 commanding officer. “It is imperative to continually exercise our essential functions and sharpen our skills.”
