Sgt. David Mitchell, a military policeman with Special Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force - Southern Command, conducts a pace count on disrupted terrain during land navigation training at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina, May 4, 2020. Land navigation consists of being able to use skills that can help one traverse through unfamiliar terrain by foot or in a vehicle. Marines and Sailors with SPMAGTF-SC are conducting a variety of pre-deployment training events and qualifications to enhance crisis response readiness. These events assist the Marines and Sailors with providing humanitarian aid assistance and engineering projects alongside partner nation military forces in Latin America and the Caribbean.
