171124-M-ZL982-083 ATLANTIC OCEAN (Nov. 24, 2017) A U.S. Marine Corps AV-8B Harrier assigned to Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron (VMM) 162 (Reinforced), 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit (26th MEU), takes off from the amphibious assault ship USS Iwo Jima (LHD 7) as part of a combined composite training unit exercise (COMPTUEX) in the Atlantic Ocean, Nov. 24, 2017. The exercise allows all elements of the Marine Air Ground Task Force (MAGTF) to join and train in realistic scenarios so the MEU as a whole can meet its Pre-Deployment Training Program objectives prior to their upcoming deployment at sea.
