Japan Ground Self-Defense Force officers observe a static display of assault amphibious vehicles July 12 at Camp Schwab as part of the Japan observer exchange program. “The JOEP members came here to inquire about the capabilities of the AAV platform,” said U.S. Marine Capt. John S. Kim “They want to know how the vehicles are employed and what its capabilities are in oceanic and land-based exercises.” Kim is the company commander of AAV Company, Combat Assault Battalion, 3rd Marine Division, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
