U.S. Marines with III Marine Expeditionary Force Information Group participate in the endurance course during the Jungle Warfare Training Course at Camp Gonsalves, Okinawa, Japan, March 25, 2022. The endurance course is the culminating event of Basic Jungle Skills Course and was conducted as part of an overall Jungle Field Exercise conducted on March 21-25. During the FEX, III MIG Marines practiced their ability to conduct distributed operations in an austere environment. JWTC provides challenging terrain that is found on many of the islands in the Indo-Pacific. Mastery of this terrain contributes to III MIG’s ability to employ multiple modes of low-signature maneuver in a jungle environment; as well as developing and deploying distributed, lethal, networked and persistent capabilities to process and close kill chains.
