U.S. Marines operating an Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) complete an amphibious landing from Kushi Crossing to Camp Schwab, Okinawa, Japan, Dec. 10, 2024. This was the first open-water amphibious movement for ACVs deployed to III Marine Expeditionary Force, accomplishing a new milestone for amphibious operations with the vehicle platform in the Indo-Pacific. Amphibious operations, including the use of ship-to-shore connectors, is a foundational aspect of Marine Corps operations and is critical to remaining the Nation’s premier expeditionary force in readiness.
