Meet the team behind the machine. 🌊💨
The "Swift Intruders" of Assault Craft Unit 5 give the Navy-Marine Corps team the ability to move combat power from ship to shore where others can't reach.
These Sailors keep the amphibious force ready to move, fight and sustain operations across the Indo-Pacific and beyond.

#OTD 247 years ago, Capt. John Paul Jones refused to surrender.
Outgunned, burning and taking on water, Jones famously replied, “I have not yet begun to fight!”
These immortal words and the resolve behind them helped define America's naval tradition that endures to this day.
