But that unit has now been tasked with testing and evaluating the Corps\u2019 new Joint Light Tactical Vehicle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAs the Marine Corps strives to make the most of its modernization plans, every opportunity will be taken to improve the capability and readiness of our forces at the same time,\u201d Lt. Col. Ted Wong, a Marine spokesman, told Marine Corps Times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is not uncommon for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.marinecorpstimes.com\/news\/your-marine-corps\/2018\/04\/17\/suicides-crew-chief-shortages-challenge-marine-forces-reserve\/\" title=\"\" class=\"\" target=\"_blank\">Marine reserve units <\/a>to partake in the Corps\u2019 Unit Deployment Program, or UDP, but it has been several years since the last reserve unit was activated to deploy to Okinawa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Corps\u2019 UDP program shuffles Marine infantry battalions to Okinawa for roughly six months of training. It was started in 1977 by former Commandant of the Marine Corps Gen. Louis H. Wilson Jr. and experienced a scaling down as the Corps kicked up deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan around 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Corps started preparations to jumpstart the UDP program in 2011 and a Marine reserve unit 3rd Battalion, 14th Marine Regiment was one of the early units to head back to Okinawa for the deployment program in 2012.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Marines with 2\/23 will take part in an upcoming training evolution called ITX 5-18 that will last from July 12 to Aug. 17, 2018.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reserve unit was notified of their pending deployment to Okinawa in August 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The reserve unit will be picking up the slack as the Corps pushes to modernize its force.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":34088,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":69,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":{"2":{"categories":["news","your-military"],"primary_category":"your-military"}}},"categories":[101,23,92,93,12,25,69],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3398],"class_list":["post-15055","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-news-roundup","category-home","category-left-column","category-middle-column","category-news","category-newsletters","category-your-marine-corps"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"POD6OL4UDVCLXEJ4H3C4TOB2EA","arc_canonical_url":"\/news\/your-marine-corps\/2018\/06\/20\/reserve-unit-activated-to-deploy-to-okinawa\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) -
