PACIFIC OCEAN (March 29, 2018) Gunner’s Mate 1st Class Ronald Castillo directs Sailors participating in a Beretta M9 service pistol qualification course aboard Wasp-class amphibious assault ship USS Essex (LHD 2) during an amphibious squadron and Marine expeditionary unit (MEU) integration (PMINT) exercise. PMINT is a training evolution between Essex Amphibious Ready Group and 13th MEU, which allows Sailors and Marines to train as a cohesive unit in preparation for their upcoming deployment.
