Marines with 6th Engineer Support Battalion Company B, 4th Marine Logistics Group, load up a vehicle at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst, New Jersey, Mar. 12, 2022. The 6th ESB focuses on innovating and experimenting on Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations (EABO). This training covers the new expeditionary fueling dispensing system to increase the unit's effectiveness and their mission readiness. Marines from 6th ESB have displayed their ingenuity by creating a smaller and more agile fueling capability from a much larger legacy fueling system. Their innovative efforts consist of swiftly staging low profile and small signature fueling points in order to allow forces the flexibility to flow quickly in and out of enemy engagement zones.
