KABUL, Afghanistan (Apr. 10) – The last of the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s   Marines and Sailors are arriving and the unit is beginning operations after weeks of flowing personnel and equipment here. 


 


The 2,300-strong unit is conducting operations in support of NATO’s International Security Assistance Force.  The MEU will be employed as a Theater Tactical Force, a position which allows the commander of ISAF to deploy rapidly the MEU wherever it’s needed to conduct full-spectrum operations from humanitarian assistance missions to combat operations.


 


The Marines have begun their operations in RC-South in support of and with their Afghanistan international partners.
