Brig. Gen. Matthew Glavy receives a brief discussing the phasing of air command and control from ship to shore during Bold Alligator Aviation Mission Rehearsal Exercise at Joint Expeditionary Base Little Creek, Virginia, May 23, 2017. BAAMREX, held at the Expeditionary Warfare Training Group Atlantic facilities, is an exercise that focuses on the task of providing live aerial support from amphibious ships while Marines are afloat, and transitioning that control ashore when Marines land. This large-scale movement requires constant coordination between Navy and Marine Corps units to avoid any friction that might hinder operations. In addition, BAAMREX is an opportunity for Marines of 2nd MAW, 2nd Marine Logistics Group, 2nd Marine Division, and Sailors from Expeditionary Strike Group 2 and other units to rehearse key events of Bold Alligator 17. Glavy is the commanding general of 2nd MAW. ( Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl. Koby I. Saunders)
