Role-playing village elders speak with 2nd Lt. Crocker, platoon commander, 1st Platoon, Company K, Battalion Landing Team 3/8, 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit, during cultural awareness training as part of Realistic Urban Training at Fort A.P Hill, Va., June 10, 2010. The Marines came to the village to meet with community elders and find out what needs the community had. This was just one of many courses conducted during the 18-day Realistic Urban Training Exercises the MEU will participate in as part of its pre-deployment training. The urban environment is among the most challenging tactical environments MEU Marines may face during their scheduled deployment later this fall.
