Marines and Sailors assigned to Special Purpose Marine Air-Ground Task Force-Crisis Response Africa, Logistics Combat Element 18.2, took part in a Capabilities Exercise in Sierra Del Retín, Spain, Aug. 20, 2018. The Marines of the LCE spent the week conducting the CAPEX in which they assembled a light-weight water purification system to create drinkable water, and set up field expedient showers. The CAPEX was meant to test the various expeditionary crisis-response capabilities of the SPMAGTF-CR-AF LCE.
