U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Paige Sportsman, a Crew Chief with Marine Medium Tiltrotor Squadron 265, supervises rappel operations during a Helicopter Rope Suspension Techniques (HRST) Master Course at Landing Zone Sterling, Okinawa, Japan, Nov. 1, 2022. Fast roping allows Marines to enter landing zones that are too dangerous for helicopters to safely land. Fast rope and helicopter rope suspension training teach Marines proper knots, rappelling techniques, and build confidence for maneuvering from air to ground. (U.S. Marine Corps photo by Pfc.
