Japan Ground Self Defense Force Soldiers wait by supplies after unloading them from an MV-22B Osprey with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265 (Reinforced), 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit at Hakusui Sports Park, Kyushu Island, Japan, April 19. Earlier that day Marines took off from Marine Corps Air Station Iwakuni and landed aboard the JS Hyuga in order to load supplies for the residents of the Island of Kyushu.  The 31st MEU, based in Okinawa, is the only continually forward-deployed MEU and remains the Marine Corps' force-in-readiness in the Asia-Pacific region.
