U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Matt Ritchie, 31st Rescue Squadron pararescueman, cuts through a vehicle during extraction training Dec. 3. The training was part of Keen Sword to bring together U.S. Air Force and Japan Self-Defense Force pararescuemen 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.
