Khaan Quest
Marines deployed to Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, for the first time in the history of the Marine Corps, Aug. 18, 2003 in support of Khaan Quest '03.
Khaan Quest '03 is a bilateral interoperability exercise between U.S. Marines and the Mongolian Armed Forces (MAF) with an emphasis on Peace Keeping Operations (PKO) and staff and noncommissioned officer (NCO) development.
Khaan Quest `03 will move into its second phase with an emphasis on classroom and field training that builds on tactics, techniques and procedures imperative for peace keeping operations.
The MAF unit receiving training during the second phase will be replacing a Mongolian peacekeeping unit, currently deployed to Afghanistan, in December. The Marines will teach the unit peace keeping operations such as check point, patrolling, immediate action drills, riot control and more.
