170811-N-DL434-128 CORAL SEA (Aug. 11, 2017) Marines, assigned to the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), launch a combat rubber raiding craft from the well deck of the amphibious assault ship USS Bonhomme Richard (LHD 6) as part of a certification exercise (CERTEX).
Bonhomme Richard, flagship of the Bonhomme Richard Expeditionary Strike Group, is supporting a CERTEX that will evaluate the 31st MEU on crisis response operations for a number of potential contingencies. CERTEX, taking place off the coast of and within Australia’s Shoalwater Bay Training Area, will test the MEU’s ability to conduct all of its core missions such as stability operations, non-combatant evacuation and disaster relief.
