A Marine with 3rd Low Altitude Air Defense Battalion carries a stinger weapon system before loading onto a CH-46 sea knight helicopter at Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif., Feb. 3, 2014. Marines were inserted two kilometers from Lava Training Area where they had to fire and maneuver across rough terrain to an objective and set up defensive positions. After defending the area for 36 hours, the infantrymen repelled an enemy night attack and executed a counterattack across five kilometers to conclude the three-day training exercise.
