U.S. Marines and members of the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force watch as the MV-22 Osprey takes off Aug. 18, 2017, in Hokudaien, Japan, marking the first time the Osprey landed in northern Japan.

U.S. Marine Corps Col. James Harp, the Marine Air-Ground Task Force commander of Northern Viper 17, and Japan Ground Self-Defense Force Col. Iwana, deputy commander of Northern Army 11th Brigade participated in a joint interview to discuss the Osprey’s capabilities.
