A hose carries water from the ocean into the diesel powered water pump, which can pump water at a rate of 150 gallons per minute before being filtered by the Tactical Water Purification System. The TWPS is an integral part of Marine Expeditionary Unit Exercise, held here, April 2-12. During the exercise, the 15th MEU is using roughly 1,000 gallons a day for drinking and cooking. Using the TWPS, the daily requirement was produced in just about one hour.
