Summary

PACIFIC OCEAN (Oct. 27, 2017) A landing craft, air cushion (LCAC) assigned to Assault Craft Unit (ACU) 5 departs the Whidbey Island-class amphibious dock landing ship USS Rushmore (LSD 47) to the beach during a simulated amphibious landing for Dawn Blitz 2017. Dawn Blitz is a scenario-driven exercise designed to train and integrate Navy and Marine Corps units by providing a robust training environment where forces plan and execute an amphibious assault, engage in live-fire events, and establish expeditionary advanced bases in a land and maritime threat environment to improve naval amphibious core competencies.
