A U.K. Royal Marines team, embarked on Chilean ship ACh Ministro Zenteno (PFG 08) board the destroyer USS O'Bannon (DD 987) during a Maritime Interdiction Operation (MIO) training evolution. O'Bannon and Ministro Zenteno are among 19 ships participating in Teamwork South 2003. Teamwork South is a bi-annual multi-national exercise hosted by the Chilean Navy and conducted in Chilean territorial waters to further bolster a robust relationship and mutual understanding in the region. It offers a unique opportunity to maintain a consistent training environment in the region as well as a continued multi-national commitment to hemispheric defense and coalition.

That picture was first posted this forum over two years ago.

These guys are from FPGRM - Fleet Protection Group Royal Marines, based at Faslane on the Clyde.
