U.S. Marines with 2d Battalion, 7th Marines conduct the final field training operation with the Japan Ground Self-Defense Force (JGSDF) over several days including cold snowy conditions during Resolute Dragon 21 (RD21) at Ojojihara Proving Grounds, Japan.
RD21 is the largest bilateral field training exercise between the U.S. Marine Corps and the JGSDF since 2013 and the largest ever in Japan. RD21 is designed to strengthen the defensive capabilities of the U.S.-Japan Alliance by exercising integrated command and control, targeting, combined arms, and maneuver across multiple domains.
