U.S. Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Jonathan Birkeland, an air traffic control specialist with Air Traffic Control, 31st Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU), guides his Marine on transmitting communications with MV-22B Osprey pilots to a Forward Arming and Refueling Point (FARP) on Camp Hansen, Okinawa, Japan, Nov. 30, 2021. A FARP is used to extend the capabilities of rotary or fixed wing aircrafts to allow rearming and refueling without having to fall back to a forward operating base. The 31st MEU, the Marine Corps’ only continuously forward-deployed MEU, provides a flexible and lethal force ready to perform a wide range of military operations as the premier crisis response force in the Indo-Pacific region.
