Summary edit

Description

The NZ Army and Royal NZ Navy embarked on a six week long amphibious warfare exercise in Southern California at the US Marine Corps’ Camp Pendleton in July 2013. The exercise saw our sailors and soldiers learn amphibious war fighting skills from their US Marine counterparts from the 1st Marine Division. Also taking part in the exercise were Japanese and Canadian forces.

The exercise was designed to prepare troops for amphibious operations, which sees the force launch their military operation from ships onto the land in either a conflict or humanitarian aid situation in the Pacific. The NZ Defence Force has been preparing its own forces for amphibious operations for some time and this was a perfect opportunity to further develop the skills and knowledge to allow the NZ Defence Force to execute successful amphibious operations in the South Pacific.
