Staff Sgt. Manuel Delarosa, platoon guide and support stick leader for 1st Platoon, Company A, 4th Assault Amphibious Battalion, Multi-National Force - West, surveys his Marines Aug. 22 as they conduct quick reaction force training on Al Asad Air Base, Iraq. The reserve Marine unit, headquartered in Norfolk, Va., is responsible for performing QRF duties for MNF-W. Most of the Marines are trained as assault amphibious vehicle crewmen, but though their mission in Iraq has kept them from the oceans or their AAVs, they have adapted quickly to their current mission.
