Before
leaving Okinawa, the MSPF conducted interoperability training to assist
MEU reconnaissance elements in training with the MEU’s direct action
unit in MSPF operations. The MSPF comprises select members of force reconnaissance
and the MEU’s ground combat element. The III Marine Expeditionary
Force’s Special Operations Training Group teaches MEU Marines the
special techniques required for MSPF operations.

in a TRUEX, conducting raids and direct action missions in various
urban scenarios.
