U.S. Marines with Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) 171 prepare to lift a simulated victim to safety during exercise Eagle Wrath 2016 at Combined Arms Training Center Camp Fuji, Japan, July 8, 2016. The squadron plans to complete their unit annual training requirements throughout three stages, which focuses on air base ground defense and Marine Corps common skills that Marines are unable to train for locally. During the first stage, called the ‘personal and crew served weapon’ stage, Marines practice the employment of M4A1 Carbines, M16A4 service rifles, M203 grenade launchers, AT-4 rocket launchers, M2 .50-caliber heavy-machine guns, M240 bravo light-machine guns and M249 squad automatic weapons. The Marines will implement some of these weapons while conducting table three rifle qualifications, a fire team employment exercise, squad patrolling practice, and machine gun employment and familiarization training.
