    The 374th Civil Engineer Squadron Fire Department responds to a simulated aircraft incident during a major accident response exercise at Yokota Air Base, Japan, May 11, 2022. The MARE tested the base’s response to a simulated F-16 Fighting Falcon crash and the ability to collaborate with mission partners. Due to the support of Naval Air Facility Atsugi, Commander Fleet Activities Yokosuka, Misawa Air Base and Tokyo Fire Department, Fussa Fire Station, this was the largest MARE in Yokota history.

    A fire training exercise is taking place at Yokota Air Base, Japan, featuring a controlled burn of a mock vehicle (car fire trainer). A large red Airport Rescue and Fire Fighting (ARFF) truck labeled 'Yokota Air Base Fire Department, Unit 9' is positioned nearby, likely preparing to suppress the flames. A training structure is visible in the background, indicating this is a dedicated fire training area.
    An airport/airfield crash rescue fire truck (ARFF) labeled 'Unit 9' from a Fire Department is conducting a live fire training exercise. The truck is discharging a powerful water stream from its front-mounted turret nozzle onto a metal training prop shaped like a helicopter fuselage, which has visible flames inside. The exercise is taking place on a wet tarmac surface near what appears to be a fire training facility.
    Three firefighters in full protective gear and SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) are directing a high-pressure water stream at a burning metal structure, likely a training prop designed to simulate a vehicle or aircraft fire. The scene appears to be a firefighting training exercise conducted on an open tarmac or training ground. Flames and a gas jet are visible on the left side of the burning structure.
    Two firefighters in full turnout gear and SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) equipment are responding to a vehicle incident involving a van with its door open. A person (likely a training mannequin or victim) is lying on the wet pavement partially outside the vehicle. The scene appears to be a training exercise or emergency response drill, indicated by the controlled smoke and staged environment.
    Two firefighters in full turnout gear and MSA SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) units are dragging an incapacitated person across a paved surface using a rescue rope or strap. A red fire truck numbered '11' is visible in the background along with a third firefighter. This appears to be a firefighter rescue training exercise or drill conducted in an open lot near an industrial facility.
    Two firefighters in full turnout gear are attending to a seated individual on a grass field, appearing to conduct a medical response drill or training exercise. One firefighter is kneeling beside the seated person reviewing what appears to be a triage card, while the second firefighter in full SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) gear is preparing what looks like a stretcher or tarp. All three individuals are wearing face masks, suggesting this exercise took place during COVID-19 precautions.
    Three firefighters/first responders in tan turnout gear with high-visibility striping are attending to a person lying on the grass next to a folding stretcher. The scene appears to be a training exercise or drill conducted outdoors near a fenced facility. Two responders are wearing surgical masks, and one wears a full yellow helmet with face shield.
    The image depicts what appears to be a medical training or emergency response drill, featuring a simulated wound on a person's lower leg. A realistic-looking prosthetic or moulage injury is visible on the shin area, consistent with trauma simulation used in first aid or military training exercises. A person in military camouflage uniform is visible in the background, supporting the training context.
    A military medical training exercise is underway outdoors, with a uniformed service member assessing a simulated casualty wearing realistic moulage makeup depicting a severe facial wound around the eye area. The scene involves multiple military personnel in the background, suggesting a mass casualty drill or field medical exercise. The casualty actor is wearing civilian clothing with a lanyard/tag, consistent with role-player identification in training scenarios.
    A group of firefighters in turnout gear and navy blue uniforms are gathered at what appears to be a training facility. Behind them stands a large metal training prop shaped like a helicopter fuselage, constructed from weathered/rusted steel. The group appears to be a mixed team, including both American personnel (visible US flag patch) and Japanese personnel, suggesting a joint training exercise.
    Two personnel in white hazmat/CBRN protective suits with full-face respirators and black rubber boots are conducting what appears to be a decontamination or detection exercise on a paved area. One individual carries a backpack sprayer while the other holds a detection or sampling wand. The setting appears to be a military installation, with additional personnel in the background and a multi-story training building labeled '51394'.
    Three firefighters in full turnout gear are attending to a person lying on a green cot outdoors on a grass field. This appears to be a training exercise or drill, with responders practicing patient assessment and stabilization techniques. Two of the firefighters are wearing surgical masks, and one wears a yellow helmet.
    This image depicts a mass casualty emergency response drill, likely conducted at a U.S. military base in Japan, as indicated by the Tokyo Fire Department (東京消防庁) truck visible in the background. Simulated casualties are lying on stretchers and red mats while responders attend to them, with a damaged vehicle, an LPG tank, and fire trucks present as part of the exercise scenario. Both military personnel and civilian emergency responders, including Japanese firefighters in green helmets, are participating in the joint training exercise.
    A joint emergency response exercise is taking place at what appears to be a military installation, likely in Japan based on architectural cues. Firefighters and military medics are collaboratively loading or unloading a patient on a stretcher into the back of a white ambulance or medical transport vehicle. Personnel wearing both firefighter turnout gear and military camouflage uniforms with red cross insignia are actively participating.
    Multiple military personnel in OCP (Operational Camouflage Pattern) uniforms are working inside what appears to be a military medical transport vehicle or aircraft. Several individuals are wearing Red Cross armbands, indicating medical roles, and are engaged in setting up or securing medical equipment including a litter/stretcher. The scene appears to be a medical evacuation training exercise or operational preparation.
    The image shows firefighters in full protective gear approaching a controlled burn structure engulfed in flames. Multiple personnel wearing SCBA (Self-Contained Breathing Apparatus) tanks branded 'MSA' and marked '東京消防 (Tokyo Fire)' are visible, suggesting this is a joint training exercise. The metal burn structure is fully involved with active fire visible through its open panels.
    Two firefighters in full protective gear are actively combating a controlled fire inside a metal training structure. The firefighter in the foreground wearing a white helmet marked with Japanese characters (東京消防庁 - Tokyo Fire Department) is directing a high-pressure water stream into the burning compartment. This appears to be a live-fire training exercise conducted by the Tokyo Fire Department.
    A close-up ground-level photograph shows a ratchet strap hook assembly lying on an asphalt surface, with various other equipment and tools scattered in the background. The foreground device appears to be a tie-down ratchet mechanism with a metal hook attached via a spring-loaded connection. In the blurred background, additional equipment, vehicles including what appears to be a fire truck, and trees are visible.
