Marines assigned to the 26th Marine Expeditionary Unit wait to pass down a line of Marines and sailors to the galley during a resupply at sea (RAS), Nov. 4, 2012, to replenish the food and supplies aboard the ship. The USS Wasp and Marines and sailors assigned to 26th MEU are currently off the coast of New York in support of Hurricane Sandy disaster relief efforts in New York and New Jersey. The 26th MEU is able to provide generators, fuel, clean water, and helicopter lift capabilities to aid in disaster relief efforts. The 26th MEU was currently conducting pre-deployment training, preparing for their departure in 2013. As an expeditionary force operating from the sea, the MEU is a Marine Air-Ground Task Force capable of conducting amphibious operations, crisis response, and limited contingency operations.
