TOULON, France ? Maritime Prepositioning Force officer Lt. j.g. Edward D. Quinones, from Amphibious Construction Battalion Two, from Little Creek, Va., gives a tour of the MPF ship, MV 2nd LT John P. Bobo, positioned off the southern coast of France. The ship was host to approximately 60 MPF Marines from around the fleet for Exercise Brilliant Midas 06. The exercise took place Sept. 28 to Oct. 14, and served as a learning tool to maintain and increase staff planning skills for MPF Marines. The force includes 16 constantly deployed ships that are configured to transport nearly everything the Marine Corps needs to sustain about 15,000 Marine Corps Air Ground Task Force personnel for up to 30 days during an initial military operation.
