An MV-22 Osprey with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 266 prepares to drop a fast rope during the 22nd MEU Deployment for Training at Fort Hill, VA., July 31, 2018. In preparation for their upcoming deployment, the Marines practiced embassy reinforcement by fast roping onto a rooftop and clearing out a simulated embassy building, which in turn allowed the Marines to train in an urban environment.
