21st SOS supports U.S. Marines and JGSDF in massive Resolute Dragon exercise
A U.S. Marine MV-22B flight engineer, from the Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 262 (VMM-262), checks ground clearance while bringing a MV-22 Osprey in for a landing during exercise Resolute Dragon 21 at the Ojojihara Training Area, Japan, Dec. 9, 2021. U.S. Marines operate in air-to-ground task forces, enabling tactical and operational maneuvers that include rapid infiltration and exfiltration in support of Expeditionary Advanced Base Operations. Allied integration is critical, but can be complex and requires regular, intensive training to maintain requisite skills to maintain mission readiness. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff. Sgt.
