Len "Loni" Anderson, left, commanding general of 4th Marine Aircraft Wing, Marine Forces Reserve, received a personal letter and coin from Contra-Almirante Marcelo Guimarães Dias (Rear Adm. Brazilian Marine Corps), right, commander of Brazil’s Amphibious Division, following a tour of the training areas during UNITAS LXIII at Ilha do Governador, Rio de Janeiro, Sept. 6, 2022. The exchange of a gift is indicative of the relationships built during the span of 63 iterations of exercise UNITAS. UNITAS, which is Latin for ‘unity’ trains forces from across the globe in South America to conduct joint maritime operations through the execution of anti-surface, anti-submarine, anti-air, amphibious, and electronic warfare operations that enhance warfighting proficiency and increase interoperability among participating navy and marine forces.
