Family and friends of Marines and Sailors with the 13th Marine Expeditionary Unit, I Marine Expeditionary Force, rose with the sun to observe amphibious operations aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Calif., Sept. 28, 2015. The expo gave families an opportunity to observe their loved ones at work as well as a chance to build connections that will help them through the 13th MEU’s upcoming deployment.
