Joint PJs train for the worst
United Stated Air Force Staff Sgt. Matt Ritchie, 31st Rescue Squadron, a pararescue man cuts through a windshield during vehicle extraction training Dec. 3. The extraction training was part of Keen Sword to bring together United States Air Force and Japan Self-Defense Forces pararescue men to train and share techniques on vehicle extraction. Keen Sword is designed to allow the United States and Japan to practice and evaluate the coordination procedures and interoperability elements required to effectively and mutually respond to the defense of Japan, or to a regional crisis or contingency situation in the Asia-Pacific region, while building bilateral confidences and working relationships. .(U.S. Air Force photo/Staff Sgt.
