MARINE CORPS AIR STATION CHERRY POINT, NORTH CAROLINA - Marines conduct drills during shipboard firefighting training aboard Marine Corps Air Station Cherry Point, North Carolina, Aug 24, 2018. The rehearsal was conducted to prepare Marines who will later be serving with the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit to rapidly respond to a potential fire aboard a ship. Training evolutions such as shipboard firefighting allow Marines to familiarize themselves with equipment and procedures in a controlled environment so they can execute quickly and efficiently in a real world scenario.
