Trained and itching for deployment, the 15th MEU Realism Unit trains together using CAX's. Unlike normal training's where you use just one or two sections, this let's every section practice with one another. This usually involves deep planning.
The 15th MEU(SOC) deploys to Chernarus in the game Arma 2. A local opposing force causes civil unrest in the country. They have occupied a major airfield, a small island, and two major port towns of the country cutting into its economy heavily by blocking trade from the sea.
The Special Operations Capable Exercise (SOCEX) consists of seven missions divided into four days. They would take place on consecutive Sundays. The missions are based on a list of missions that an MEU must be capable of. This list was adapted to the 15thMEU and the Arma2 Combat Simulation Environment. Some of the missions would be Rapid Staff Planning (R2P2) operations where the target is not known until only a few hours before the operation itself. MEU's need their SOC(Special Operations Capable) designator before they are allowed to go onto deployment. So with the following videos, the 15th MEU Realism Unit hopes to prove to you that they have earned their SOC designation instead of just throwing it on like many other groups like to do.
SOCEX I: Marine Special Purpose Force
SOCEX II: Non-Combat and Security Ops
SOCEX III: Amphibious Assault/Seizure of an Airfield/Tactical Deception
SOCEX IV: Unimproved Air Strip Ops/Terminal Guidance/TRAP
About 15th MEU (SOC) Realism Unit (www.15thmeu.net)
First and foremost, we are NOT the real 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit. We are a unit that simulates a Marine Corps environment.
Our unit was born on June 21, 2007 with our first game, Armed Assault. We take pride in our realistic atmosphere and trainings while not sacrificing the fun of the game and being in a group.
We are not a CLAN. We are a unit. So please refer to us as such. Thank you. :)
