U.S. Marine Corps Capt. Christopher Jasperson lays camouflage over the top of an MV-22B Osprey tiltrotor aircraft from Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing to prevent detection from above during Blue Chromite 2017 in Okinawa, Japan, October 31, 2016. Camouflaging the aircraft overnight is one of the methods used by forward deployed Marines during BC17 to remain agile with a reduced signature according to recent guidance from the Commandant. Blue Chromite is a U.S.-only exercise which strengthens the Navy-Marine Corps expeditionary, amphibious rapid-response capabilities based in Okinawa and greater Indo-Asia-Pacific region. Gish, from Big Bear Lake, California, is a pilot with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
