The USS Bataan (LHD 5) follows closely behind the USS Mesa Verde (LPD 19) during a simulated straight transit, as a rehearsal for a defense of the amphibious task force mission during Amphibious Ready Group Marine Expeditionary Unit Exercise Dec. 7, 2016. During the three-week training evolution, Marines will tackle a wide range of operations and scenarios enhancing interoperability and amphibious warfare capabilities with their Navy counterparts. The additional firepower Marines provide improves the Navy-Marine Corps team’s ability to defend the naval vessels of the Bataan Amphibious Ready Gr
