REFORPAC 2025: US, JASDF medics conduct aeromedical evacuation training
Personnel assigned to the Japan Air Self-Defense Force Misawa Medical Squadron execute in-flight patient care onboard a U.S. Air Force C-130J Super Hercules assigned to the 36th Airlift Squadron for a mass casualty exercise during Resolute Force Pacific 2025 at Misawa Air Base, Japan, July 23, 2025. For the first time ever, JASDF medics flew aboard a U.S. aircraft to observe U.S. Air Force in-flight patient care and basic wound treatment procedures. They later applied what they learned by performing in-flight care themselves, showcasing combined capability and strengthening bilateral readiness. (U.S. Air Force photo by Staff Sgt. Spencer Tobler)
