ABOUT

On July 10-24, 2017, the Louisiana Care IRT contingent comprised of National Guard and Reserve assets of the U.S. Armed Forces will deploy to the medically underserved communities of Louisiana to conduct deployment and readiness training for military personnel. Incidental to military readiness training, the Louisiana Care IRT team will provide medical, dental and optometry care to assist local health and municipal authorities in addressing underserved and unmet community health and civic needs. Units will also conduct critical mission training and logistical movement in order to simulate military/civilian humanitarian operations and health care delivery in the time of crisis, conflict or disaster.

Unit Deployment Program provides Marines with valuable skills
Marines with Battery O, 5th Battalion, 14th Marine Regiment, simulate firing an M240G medium machine gun during a demonstration for local government officials at East Fuji Maneuver Area on mainland Japan Sept. 14. Battery O is currently deployed to Okinawa, Japan as a part of the Unit Deployment Program, a program designed to increase the training level and unit continuity of Marine Corps units stationed in the continental United States. Units with Marine Forces Reserve have honed their skills in the UDP since 2003, and continue to do so, as two squadrons from the 4th Marine Aircraft Wing are set to mobilize for their UDP deployment in 2013.
