An M1A1 Abrams tank with tank platoon, Battalion Landing Team, 2nd Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 22nd Marine Expeditionary Unit, fires its main gun during a tank gunnery range exercise aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Lejeune, N.C., March 11, 2011. The Marines took full advantage of the time given, working extra hours to ensure they are qualified in case they are needed during the MEU’s deployment. The Marines and sailors of the 22nd MEU are currently deployed with Amphibious Squadron 6 aboard USS Bataan Amphibious Ready Group and will continue to conduct a series of progressively complex exercises designed to train and test the MEU’s ability to operate as a cohesive and effective Marine Air Ground Task Force.
