Exercise Dawn Blitz hits Camp Pendleton - Observation Post: News

United States Marines and sailors, along with service members from Japan, Mexico and New Zealand, executed an amphibious landing on the beaches of Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton as part of Exercise Dawn Blitz 2015, Sept. 5.
Dawn Blitz is a multinational, amphibious training exercise intended to refine the Navy and Marine Corps’ ability to effectively operate together as a cohesive crisis response force, as well as strengthen the international military relationships through crisis action planning, cooperation in amphibious operations, and command and control capabilities.

“Dawn Blitz is a great opportunity to train with the nations we are partnered with,” said Berger. “For 2015, we are honored to have Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Australia, Chile, and Colombia working closely with us again to further enhance our combined ability to conduct complex amphibious operations. I’ve seen them first hand, working alongside coalition partners, broadening their perspective of the world and learning what it means to be an expeditionary force in readiness.”
