Marines and sailors with the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit stopped at the French Combat Warfare Training Center, Djibouti for a day of water and land obstacle course training, Dec. 4. The training, led by instructors from French forces of the French CWTC in Djibouti, involved obstacle courses on land and in the water different from ones Marines and sailors are used to seeing back home. The courses emphasized teamwork to make it through each obstacle. The 15th MEU is deployed as part of the Peleliu Amphibious Ready Group as a U.S. Central Command theater reserve force, providing support for maritime security operations and theater security cooperation efforts in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility.
