    Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force corpsmen treat a simulated casualty during an amphibious warfare exercise on the DDH Type Hyuga while underway in the Pacific Ocean, May 20, 2018. Marines and Sailors with Combat Logistics Battalion 31, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit, joined the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force service members to embark with the newly formed Amphibious Rapid Deployment Brigade to enhance the ARDB’s capabilities to deal with various situations on islands. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible force ready to perform a wide range of military operations. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Lance Cpl.

    A large Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) amphibious transport dock ship is moored at a naval pier. The vessel displays Japanese katakana text 'しもきた' (Shimokita) on its hull and flies the JMSDF Naval Ensign (Rising Sun flag). The ship is photographed under overcast skies at what appears to be a Japanese naval base.
    A military vehicle, appearing to be a HMMWV (Humvee), is being guided into what appears to be the cargo bay or vehicle deck of a naval vessel or large military transport. Personnel in dark coveralls and at least one in a helmet are directing the vehicle's approach using hand signals. The setting appears to be a port or loading facility with green trees visible in the background.
    A large group of military personnel in camouflage uniforms are gathered in a semicircle on what appears to be a military installation or ship deck. A standing instructor or briefing officer addresses the seated soldiers, suggesting a training briefing or operational debriefing session. The mix of uniform patterns and helmet styles indicates this may be a joint military exercise involving multiple nations.
    A group of military personnel from what appears to be a joint U.S.-Japanese military exercise or operation pose for a formal group photo in front of a large gray naval vessel. The gangway of the ship displays a blue banner with Japanese kanji characters reading '輸送艦しもきた' (Transport Ship Shimokita), along with a unit insignia patch. Personnel are arranged in two rows — standing and kneeling — wearing mixed camouflage uniforms and helmets.
    Two crew members are on the bridge of a naval or maritime vessel, operating navigation and communication equipment. One person stands near the helm holding a communication device, while the other sits at a console with a keyboard. Numbers and notations are written on the bridge windows, likely indicating navigational data.
    A military helicopter, numbered '54' and bearing a red circle insignia consistent with Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF) markings, is hovering or approaching over open ocean. The aircraft appears to be an SH-60 Seahawk variant in a white/grey naval livery with landing gear deployed. The image is taken from another vessel or aircraft, with partial numerals visible at the frame edges.
    A tandem-rotor helicopter, consistent with a CH-47 Chinook design, hovers above a naval vessel's flight deck over open ocean. Two flight deck crew members in orange life vests and white helmets are directing the aircraft using signal wands/paddles. The scene depicts a helicopter landing or approach operation aboard a warship.
    Two military helicopters are flying in formation against an overcast gray sky. Both aircraft are light gray in color and bear visible identification numbers and roundel markings consistent with the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force (JMSDF). The foreground helicopter is numbered '317' and the background helicopter appears numbered '514'.
    Personnel aboard what appears to be a naval vessel are conducting a medical emergency drill or response, attending to a person on an orange stretcher in a narrow corridor. A red helmet marked 'CRASH CREW JDS HYUGA' and a 'UVEX' brand helmet are visible, indicating this is likely aboard the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force ship JS Hyuga. An AED (Automated External Defibrillator) unit and a red cross medical cabinet are mounted on the wall nearby.
    Three medical personnel wearing blue protective vests, surgical masks, and gloves are treating a patient in what appears to be a military medical facility or field hospital. The patient is wearing camouflage military clothing and has an oxygen mask and multiple medical tubes attached. Text visible in the background includes Japanese characters and the name 'ANAMI' on one of the medical workers' vests.
    A person wearing military camouflage clothing is lying on a stretcher or medical gurney receiving emergency medical treatment. Medical personnel wearing gloves are attending to the patient, who has an oxygen mask applied and appears to have bandaging on the torso area. The setting appears to be a field medical facility or trauma bay.
