Particpants in the Japan Observer Exchange Program

Particpants in the Japan Observer Exchange Program pose for a photo Dec. 4 in front of an MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft at Marine Corps Air Station Futenma after being briefed on the capabilities of the aircraft. Marines provide the visitors with information about Marine Corps aircraft and its different uses. The JOEP provides interested parties with the opportunity to learn about specific equipment used by the Marine Corps. The Osprey and crew are with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.
