U.S. Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Edwin Sanford, an expeditionary airfield systems technician with Marine Wing Support Squadron (MWSS) 172, Marine Aircraft Group 36, 1st Marine Aircraft Wing, samples soil with a drilling rig prior to anchoring M-31 arresting gear on Marine Corps Air Station Futenma, Okinawa, Japan, June 25, 2023. The M-31 arresting gear is a deployable system of cables, sheaves, and shock absorbers utilized to rapidly decelerate and stop aircraft in a controlled manner. This rapid cycle arrest system enhances 1st Marine Aircraft Wing’s capacity for safe and efficient landings, facilitates rapid response times, and supplements operational superiority in expeditionary environments.
