Lt. Col. Christopher M. Murray, left, receives the Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265 colors from Lt. Col. William L. Depue Jr. May 22 at Marine Corps Air Station Futenma during a change of command ceremony. The transfer of organizational colors symbolizes the transfer of command from Depue to Murray. “As you know, we've had an alliance with the country of Japan for its defense for a number of years,” said Murray. “We owe it to the people of Japan to provide the most capable, technically-advanced platforms that we can, and that's the Osprey.” The MV-22B Osprey is a highly-capable, tiltrotor aircraft which combines the vertical capability of a helicopter with the speed and range of a fixed-wing aircraft. VMM-265 is with Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, III Marine Expeditionary Force.
