    U.S. Marines with 12th Marine Regiment, 3d Marine Division, prepare to execute a High Mobility Artillery Rocket System rapid infiltration to Kin Red from U.S. Army Logistics Support Vehicles as part of joint exercise Keen Sword, Okinawa, Japan, on Oct. 31, 2020. After landing at Kin Red, the HIMARS swiftly debarked, moved to a firing position, and engaged targets. This operation demonstrated the ability of 3d Marine Division to deploy long-range, precision-fires assets across a vast region in support of distributed operations in the littorals. Keen Sword is a bilateral exercise involving Marines from III Marine Expeditionary Force and Japan Self-Defense Forces strengthening readiness, interoperability, and deterrence in the Indo-Pacific region.

    A U.S. Army soldier stands in the open hatch of a tan/desert-camouflage military vehicle, identified as an M270 or similar rocket artillery system (likely an M142 HIMARS or FMTV-based launcher), on a paved surface near a waterfront. The vehicle bears crew names 'SPC GALAMBOS,' 'SSG D'ILODEAU,' and 'PFC GREEN,' along with unit markings including '1-94FA' (1st Battalion, 94th Field Artillery). The setting appears to be a coastal military installation, possibly in the Pacific region.
    The image shows two military rocket artillery vehicles on a coastal concrete surface, likely a port or pier. The foreground vehicle is a tan/desert-colored M270 or HIMARS-type launcher, while the background vehicle is olive drab colored. Both vehicles have personnel visible in the commander's hatches, and a body of water is visible in the background.

Personnel in helmets are visible in the hatches of both vehicles.
    A U.S. Marine in full combat utility uniform stands on a shoreline holding a radio, observing a gray military landing craft or utility vessel approaching the beach.

Floating pontoon or causeway sections are visible in the water to the right of the vessel.
    A large military tactical vehicle, appearing to be an M142 HIMARS or similar heavy wheeled rocket artillery system, is being offloaded from a naval vessel at a port or pier. A soldier in combat gear is positioned on top of the cab, likely guiding the vehicle during the offloading operation. Additional military personnel and vehicles are visible in the background near the ship's ramp.
