191121-M-QK616-1008 KAKINADA, India (Nov. 21, 20190 U.S. assault amphibious vehicles depart Kakinada, India for the dock landing ship USS Germantown (LSD 42) at the conclusion of exercise Tiger TRIUMPH, Nov. 21, 2019. During Tiger TRIUMPH, U.S. and Indian forces conducted valuable training in humanitarian assistance disaster relief operations by inserting a joint and combined Indian and U.S. force from ship-to-shore in response to a hypothetical natural disaster. While on shore, the forces conducted limited patrolling, moved simulated victims to medical care and produced and distributed drinking water. Military exercises like Tiger TRIUMPH improve partnership, readiness and cooperation. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by 1st Lt. Tori Sharpe)
