After being gassed, a Marine with Kilo Company, 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Regiment, guides Marines through concertina wire during training exercise Lava Viper, a staple of their pre-deployment training, at Range 10 aboard Pohakuloa Training Area, Hawaii, Nov. 4, 2015. The purpose of the training was to provide Marines within the company with an opportunity to utilize various tactics and weapons while organizing within the platoons to accomplish a common mission. Lava Viper provides the Hawaii-based Marines with an opportunity to conduct various movements, live-fire and tactical training before departing for Integrated Training Exercise aboard Marine Air-Ground Combat Center Twentynine Palms, Calif., where the battalion will train and be evaluated as a whole.
