Description
English: A Marine from the Hawaii-based 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment sets up security in a landing zone after a successful search and rescue training mission Jan. 21, 2006, at the Pohukaloa Training Area aboard the "Big Island" of Hawaii. The training came just days before the Marines from the battalion's Weapons Company boarded planes to fly to Iraq. The Marines here have undergone months of extensive training prior to their recent deployment to Iraq's western Al Anbar Province in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom. The battalion will be assisting Multi-national Forces weed out insurgents while they train the Iraqi Security Forces to conduct operations on their own. The battalion's deployment to Iraq is part of a regularly scheduled rotation of U.S. forces in Al Anbar Province. More than 30,000 Marine and sailors of the Camp Pendleton, Calif.-based I Marine Expeditionary Force are replacing the Camp Lejeune, N.C.-based II MEF. (Photo by 2nd Lt. Shawn Wilkinson, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment)
