August 28, 2021 - A helmet camera
view from a
U.S. Marine with Company B., 1st Battalion, 7th Marine Regiment
(Reinforced), Marine Rotational Force – Darwin, participating with his
fellow Marines in a mechanized
infantry assault with Australian Army soldiers during Exercise Koolendong
2021 at
Bradshaw Field Training Area, NT, Australia.
The mechanized infantry assault
allowed Marines to work alongside Australian M113AS4 Armored Personnel
Carriers and M1A1 Abrams Main Battle Tanks to seize an objective point.
Exercise Koolendong validates MRF-D’s and the Australian Defence
Force’s ability to conduct expeditionary command and control
operations, demonstrating the shared commitment to being
ready to respond to a crisis or contingency in the
Indo-Pacific region.
