| Subject: US Marines are practicing seizing small islands as a possible China fight looms in the Pacific Thu Mar 21, 2019 7:29 pm | |
| US Marines recently led a simulated assault on a small island in the Pacific, honing skills thought to be essential in a fight with China. The exercise, which also involved the Army and the Air Force, was part of the Corps' efforts to refine the Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations concept. "This entire mission profile simulated the process of securing advanced footholds for follow-on forces to conduct further military operations, with rapid redeployment," the service said. Last week, Gen. Joseph Dunford, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told Congress that the ability to seize advanced bases would be critical in a war with China.
