U.S. Marines and U.S. Navy Sailors transfer a simulated casualty onto a Japanese Self-Defense Force UH-1 helicopter during a medical evacuation drill in support of Artillery Relocation Training Program 25.1 at the Yausubetsu Maneuver Area, Hokkaido, Japan, June 6, 2025. ARTP, established by the 1997 Special Action Committee in Okinawa, relocates live-fire artillery training from Okinawa to mainland Japan to maintain readiness and stabilize U.S. Forces’ basing, enhancing regional security across Japan and the Indo-Pacific. This training boosts the capabilities and readiness of the Marine Corps’ only permanently forward-deployed artillery unit, enabling accurate indirect fire support. The Marines and Sailors are with 3d Battalion, 12th Marines, 3d Marine Division. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Cpl. Evelyn Doherty)
