CARAT Malaysia 2013.

Note:  These CARAT exercises are great in theory but I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around exactly what they're trying to accomplish.  Marines working with foreign forces is a good thing.  But many of these countries are facing active insurgencies/terrorism.  I've questioned the need for MARSOC or SEALs on MEUs, but the need to include them in these CARAT exercises and to perhaps establish a forward base with the permission of the host country seems like a no brainer.
