Brig. Gen. 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.
