 Sailors and Marines assigned to Expeditionary Strike Group 3 and 1st Marine Expeditionary Brigade recently partnered with coalition forces from Japan, New Zealand, and Mexico to successfully complete an amphibious landing on the beaches of Camp Pendleton as part of Donblitz 15. However, Donblitz isn't confined to the waters or even the beaches of Southern California. After a successful amphibious landing, soldiers with the 1st Royal New Zealand Infantry Regiment moved inland to conduct scenario-based training in an infantry immersion trainer. Infantry immersion training provides individuals with stressful scenarios they tend to encounter during combat operations. First introduced in 2000, Donblitz continues to grow each year in both size and importance, providing a rigorous training environment for U.S. soldiers, Marines, and international partners to increase core amphibious capabilities while strengthening global partnership.
