Force Recon - Assault Element

Force Recon Marines with the assault element of the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU)'s Maritime Raid Force (MRF) storm a building during a training exercise.

The MEU's Force Recon Platoon (FRP) acts as the MRF's assault force, tasked with seizing the primary objectives wether that be key sections of hijacked ship or the buildings at an emey compound.

Force Recon are highly trained in close quarters battle (CQB) and other direct action skills, making them ideal for this role.

Other elements of the Maritime Raid Force include the reconnaissance element, provided by the Amphibious Reconnaissance Platoon (ARP) and a security element provided by Marines with the MEU's Battalion Landing Team (BLT).
