High Mobility Multi-Wheeled vehicles, as part of Battalion Landing Team 1st Battalion, 2nd Marine Regiment, 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit, are loaded onto Landing Craft Air Cushioned hovercrafts Feb. 4, 2012. Prior to executing a rehearsal beach landing for a simulated raid, the LCACs debarked from here as the 24th MEU conducts their final at-sea training exercise.  The 24th MEU is conducting their Certification Exercise with the Iwo Jima Amphibious Ready Group scheduled Jan. 27 to Feb. 17, which includes a series of missions intended to evaluate and certify the unit for their upcoming deployment.
