I'm Corporal Troy Saunders with your Marine Minute.

U.S. Marines with 3rd Battalion, 4th Marine Regiment, attached to Special Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force Crisis Response-Central Command, recently participated in Exercise Cunning Seahorse at various locations in Southwest Asia. During the exercise Marines trained in riot control and embassy reinforcement procedures as well as conducting realistic simulated patrols in order to enhance their infantry skills and combat readiness.
