Sergeant Brett Bowman, right, assistant team leader, Company C, 1st Reconnaissance Battalion, assists a fellow diver with buddy rigging prior to a dive mission at Keyport, Wash., April 12, 2015. A small team of seven combat divers with the company conducted a clandestine dive exercise at night to hone individual and team skills. Their mission consisted of a stealthy insertion, sub-surface swimming to each objective, site exploitation and a covert extraction with the information gathered. The training exercise was one of many exercises the company will complete as part of a combat readiness evaluation in preparation for an upcoming deployment.
