A Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Landing Craft Air Cushion (LCAC) carrying vehicles and simulated victims maneuvers to land at Atta Port, Japan, during an annual Okinawa Prefectural Government bilateral disaster response exercise Sept. 5, 2015. The training, which has been conducted several times annually already, has previously involved U.S. Marine Corps personnel and equipment from around the island, but this is the first time Japanese aircraft have used Kadena’s runways as a reception point for JSDF responders from Honshu, or mainland Japan.
