U.S. Marine Corps Cpl. Garrett Mills, a Heavy Marine Helicopter Squadron 462 crew chief, waits on a CH- 53E Super Stallion at Misawa Air Base, Japan, Aug. 16, 2017.

If a contingency arises, Misawa AB would serve as central hub for units in the Indo-Asia- Pacific theater to relocate and receive support from the base.
