    Captain Beau Benton with 1st Special Forces Group Airborne, U.S. Army, prepares to conduct hoist training at Kin Blue Training Area, Okinawa, Japan. Nov. 05, 2019. The purpose of this training is to enhance evacuation capabilities of personnel utilizing the U.S. Marine Corps MV-22B Osprey in the event of a military or civilian mishap at sea. The ability to hoist stranded individuals from the water with tiltrotor aircraft provides additional life-saving response options and increases joint interoperability between 1st Marine Aircraft Wing and 1st Special Force Group-Airborne.
