I'm Corporal Troy Saunders with your Marine Minute.

Marines with 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing recently participated in exercise Summer Fury 2018 at Marine Corps Air Station Yuma, Arizona. Summer Fury is designed to increase the functionality and effectiveness of the 3rd MAW within the Marine Air-Ground Task Force.

Over in Europe,

During the training, service members learned how to properly set up and execute military checkpoints.

Also in the Corps,

The 31st MEU is the Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU providing a flexible force ready to perform a wide-range of military operations.
