U.S. Marine Corps 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit’s Amphibious Combat Vehicle (ACV) Platoon conducted a live-fire, waterborne gunnery range with Mk 19 40 mm automatic grenade launcher during Exercise Balikatan 24 in Oyster Bay, Philippines, May 4, 2024, marking the first overseas employment of the ACVs during their initial deployment.

Oyster Bay is 340 miles (550 km) southwest of Manila, the Filipino capitol city, and just 100 miles (160 km) from the Spratly Islands, a fiercely contested area in the South China Sea.
