Fort Pickett, Va. (Jan. 23, 2007) - A Sailor assigned to Riverine Squadron One (RIVRON-1) mans the 240Gs port side machine gun aboard a small unit riverine craft (SURC), during a unit level training exercise. RIVRON-1 is part of the newly formed Navy Expeditionary Combat Command (NECC). NECC integrates all warfighting requirements for expeditionary combat and combat support elements. This transformation allows for standardized training, manning and equipping of Sailors who will participate in the global war on terrorism as part of the joint force. It also results in more capable, responsive and effective expeditionary Sailors. U.S. Navy photo by Mass Communication 3rd Class Kenneth R. Hendrix (RELEASED)
