A U.S. Marine with 3d Littoral Combat Team, 3d Marine Littoral Regiment, 3d Marine Division, fires down range during a live-fire range for Bougainville I at Marine Corps Base Hawaii, Aug. 31, 2022. Bougainville I allows fire teams and squads with 3d LCT to rehearse small unit cohesion, lethality, and survivability for company offensive, defensive, and Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations during future exercises.
