Capt. TJ Yonkauske, a pilot assigned to the 36th Airlift Squadron, secures a harness aboard a C-130J Super Hercules, at Yokota Air Base, Japan, prior to a static-line jump Jan. 25, 2022, as part of Airborne 22. Airborne 22 demonstrates the JGSDF's capability to employ large-scale airborne insertion anywhere. During the exercise, C-130Js from Yokota are planned to airdrop approximately 500 JGSDF personnel and 100 container delivery system bundles. Training events like this increase effective interoperability to gain advantages whenever both countries work together. (Photo by Tech. Sgt. Gustavo
