 Elements of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, including battalion landing team 1st Battalion 4th Marines and Combat Logistics Battalion 31, evacuate role-playing American refugees during a simulated non-combatant evacuation operation during the MUSE certification exercise. The US forces searched and logged the evacuees, removing them from the hostile territory by a helicopter. It's a different scenario. It's always going to be presented. There's not an answer how to do everything, so you've just got to play by ear and make sure things work out. It's always got to be ready to take care of what can happen and help out the people of the world when they are MUSE. Following the events of the Humanitarian Assistance and Disaster Relief exercise, the NEO is one of many upcoming training evolutions for the MUSE SIRTEX, further preparing them for their deployment in the Asia-Pacific region.
