LCAC Air-Cushion Vehicle Landing & Unloading LAV-25 Amphibious Vehicle

Marines serving with Alpha Company, 1st Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion, team up with Assault Craft Unit 5, a Navy unit based out of Camp Pendleton, CA, to make an amphibious landing. The Marines learned how to tie down their light armored vehicles onto ACU-5’s landing craft air cushion, a hovercraft class vehicle, in process known as “griping.” Marines loaded their company of LAVs onto the LACs in the predawn hours and landed on Camp Pendleton’s Red Beach at sunrise.
