 The overall goal of the exercise King Sword was to work with the Japanese Special Operations Group, share our capabilities, share our culture, show that those capabilities are able to support a free and open Indo-Pacific. The 17th AMU starting up from the beginning, we highlighted and enforced the multi-capable airmen concept. We have had our airmen cross train into other specialties, learn multiple jobs, essentially become a jack of all trades. Doing so allows us to go to exercises with the smallest footprint possible. We were able to take the minimal equipment required and that is our ammo, our own tow bar, our own maintenance, and a full crew. Our own crew goals for this exercise was to not only execute the mission but also to build relationships with our Japanese allies and that is through working with them on the ground and just building relationships and building a good narrative for the gunship enterprise as a whole.
