Landing Craft Utility (LCU 1634)


An Amphibious Assault Vehicle (AAV) assigned to the 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) and a Landing Craft Utility (LCU) 1634 assigned to Assault Craft Unit One pass each other as the AAV returns to USS Juneau (LPD 10) and the LCU returns to USS Fort McHenry. Four AAVs departed Juneau’s well deck to conduct crossing training with Fort McHenry during Blue-Green Workups, a semi-annual amphibious integration training period between the USS Essex (LHD 2) Amphibious Ready Group (ARG) and the embarked 31st MEU. Juneau and Fort McHenry are forward deployed to Sasebo, Japan. U.S. Navy photo by Photographer's Mate Airman Gary B. Granger.
