Maj. Gen. Michael R. Regner, commanding general of 1st Marine Division, observes as diver trainers don the Marine Corps’ new Combat Dive Vests at the 43 Area training pool, April 20. The new CDV provides better buoyancy control during dive missions, attaches tactical equipment using the Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment system and attaches the diver’s scuba equipment. The CDV’s system saves the Marine Corps money by consolidating the attachments for scuba and buoyancy gear, said Master Chief Petty Officer Rodney Atherton, a master diver with 1st Marine Special Operations Battalion. 1
